Gallimore just moved into a duplex provided by the Lakeland Housing Authority.

Unfreakingbelievable

It's a big improvement, but not easy living yet.

Oh, well pardon me, for not providing your sloppy, disgusting body with better digs with my tax dollars. Please forgive me.

It has big, French doors, so she can get out quickly in case of an emergency.

Well, I hope she never has to haul ass, because she'd need to make two trips.

“After a FOX 13 viewer saw her story, she donated $100,000 to help.”

That was a kind gesture on the donor’s part. Is’s better to help the needy in that way than with taxpayer money and it usually produces better results.

Disgusting. This is what Paul was talking about last night. Being in a free society means making decisions. She decided to stuff her face.

Shocking. I thought our 'community' would leave her in the gutter to die. I'll email this one to Blitzer.

Two and a half months in the hospital, did she take the opportunity for medically supervised weight loss? Educate herself on a healthy diet? Participate in family therapy so that her family members no longer enable her pathology?

100K donation from one woman, a four-bedroom house from Habitat for Humanity, public housing until that’s ready...why, why, why?

Bartender, a round of co-dependent therapy for the house!

She got $100,000.00 but will be living in a Lakeland Housing Authority house?

Couldn’t she buy her own damn house?

If I was going to make a donation, I’d make it to a Medifast doctor so he could help get her to a healthy weight.

I can’t believe we subsidize these people. They’re “disabled” because they’re too fat to function. I’d rather “invest” in an inpatient weight loss program and after that let her fend for herself without freaking food stamps!

Okay, this article says she has lymphedema.

http://www.newschief.com/article/20110529/news/105295053

So I have more sympathy for her. I was uncharitable.

But I’m not sure how anyone can live carrying around 600 lbs of fluid - it would be weeping through her skin.

This is really sad..Poor woman may not be able to help being heavy and people always have to make a joke out of someones misfortunes..

I will tell you a little story it is about my sister she was always heavy but not near as heavy as this lady is..I had a cousin that made fun of her every time she saw my sister..One day I told cousin you know what one day when you are fat I hope you remember what you did to Linda and made fun of her..I said you will get paid back one day..Well she did and she became very over weight she is still fighting the pounds..I forgave her she was a little girl but you people are adults..Shame on you..

Triumphant Values, an apt screen name for someone who has such high Christian values. You represent our community excellently.

They should have put this poor woman on a diet of some kind and gotten her psychiatric help to figure out why she needs to hide behind all this weight. I’m sure there is a beautiful person hiding in there and they need to find her. I wish her luck.

Why don't you educate yourself on the topic before you post an article with the sole intent to disparage the subject?
This woman has been battling a debilitating illness for over 17 years.
She didn't “eat her way” into this condition, and no amount of “healthy living” will ever get her out of it.

Sure sounds like obvious disability to me, cue in SS benefits.
BTW, you do know she once worked, and also paid taxes don't you?
No?
Pardon me for not forgiving your ugly, disgusting, self-righteous, ignorant rant about a neighbor./sarcasm//

Are you one of the bureaucrats in the Social Security office that routinely deny all claims, hoping the taxpayer dies of frustration first? Just curious.
