How sad. No one called on her for two years! She must have been very isolated or the smell would have gotten someone’s attention.

A 50-something homeless man I tried to help for about 8 years was found in a house a friend found for him in our city sitting at his kitchen table. He had been dead for days. He’d been in the house for a couple months - finally a home.

He had suffered a great deal for many years and had a long list of ailments, some the doctors could not diagnose. A wonderful man, great sense of humor, who would often give his last dollar to another homeless person. A strong Christian, hungry to know his Lord better.

We who knew and supported him felt the Lord said, “Jerry - you’ve suffered enough! Come on home!”

It says she had no living relatives and was last seen September 2019.

My life long best friend was found down 5 months ago. He died alone and once he was found, his body had begun to stink.

I have wept much over this truth. It hurts me inside.

It is sad stuff, and indeed I am chagrined. I cannot do anything about it. I cannot clear up our differences. I just deal with it.

Life sucks.

On the bright side, she did get to remain at home. And even got to sit up well past bed time.

Indeed sad for you. So sorry for your loss.

I live in a senior apartment complex where we pretty much watch over one another. One woman died a few years ago in her apartment, but wasn’t discovered for a few days. Really sad, Her next-door neighbor called management when packages delivered to her door had not been picked up for several days. Policy should be 24 hours, I think.

My best friend is my dog and I wouldn’t ignore him for 5 hours much less 5 months 🤪

That’s happening quite often.
I knew a guy, who was found in sofa, watching TV for like a week or two.
Loner.
But had a dog, which made ruckus, which finally made some neighbors interested.
Without the dog, who knows how long would he be sitting there?!

"The real sadness is not that the others did not notice her death. It is that they did not realize Marinella Beretta was alive."

So sad, RIP.
