Weird I know, but that was my first thought, also, where in the world did the boyfriend go to the bathroom, unless of course there were two bathrooms there which I hope there was. I think the boyfriend has to have some sort of mental illness to let her sit there that long without getting some sort of help. Hopefully now she'll get the help that she obviously needs.

At first I thought she was elderly and her boyfriend was some young thing that didn't want to clean her up...but the story says she's 35?
Was she obese -- kind of like the mother character in the movie What's Eating Gilbert Grape? |

Imagine the 'roids she must have had after 2 years of bowl-sitting. There isn't enough Prep-H in the world that could soothe that one.

NESS CITY, Kansas (AP) -- A man whose girlfriend authorities say spent nearly two years in a bathroom in their house, sitting on the toilet so long that the seat adhered to her body, has been charged with mistreatment of a dependent adult. Kory McFarren, 37, was charged Monday in Ness County District Court. McFarren called the Ness County Sheriff's Office in late February to say something was wrong with his girlfriend. When authorities arrived at the home, they found Pam Babcock, 35, stuck to the toilet, which they think she had sat on for about a month. McFarren told authorities that Babcock feared leaving the bathroom and may not have left it in two years, although said he was unsure how long she was in there. He said that he took her food and water daily, and that he repeatedly asked her to come out but that she usually replied "maybe tomorrow." "The only thing I am guilty of is I didn't get her help sooner," McFarren told The Associated Press nearly a week ago. Ness County Attorney Craig Crosswhite said the mistreatment charge most closely fit the situation. "I looked at the statutes and spoke to the attorney general's office," he said. "This was a very unusual set of circumstances, and this is the law that most closely applied to the situation." "She would have to be sleeping on the toilet," Whipple said. Doctors at a Wichita, Kansas, hospital where Babcock was taken told McFarren that an infection in her legs had damaged her nerves and could leave her in a wheelchair. She was still at the hospital Wednesday night. McFarren's first court appearance will be in April, Crosswhite said

this is so sad and disgusting at the same time. I'm with Tucky that my legs go numb within a couple minutes. there's a reason for the saying "**** or get off the pot"! not that I say that or anything.
with respect to the boyfriend being charged, it's odd. I mean, she's a grown woman. I understand he should've recognized she needed help. maybe he needs help too. it gets me that we (as a society) are always looking for someone to blame. no one is ever forced to take responsibility. now, if she's clearly unstable and he was intentionally ignoring her need for treatment, that's one thing. but I guess until more is known about the situation, I'm just speculating. |

At first I didn't understand what this thread was talking about, then I searched for newer info on this woman and I found this piece from the last year:
The woman who sat in the toilet bowl for 2 long years Updated on April 14, 2015 P R E F A C E: Pam Babcock , 35, is the name of the Ness City woman whose bizarre story was sensationalized in the press and the internet worldwide as the woman who sat in the toilet bowl for 2 solid years. Remember the incident? T E X T: This story began on the 27th day of February when Pam's boyfriend, Kory, 37 called Police to report that something had gone wrong with his girlfriend who prefers to remain seated on the toilet bowl where she had been for 2 years. At this juncture, Sheriff Whipple expressed surprise why it took Kory 2 years to report the matter. It was alleged that Kory failed to explain the reason why. The responding police officers found Pam sitting on the toilet seat, her sweat pants down to her mid-thigh. Whipple said that Pam was somewhat disoriented and her legs and muscles looked like they had atrophied. A closer look at the woman reveals that her skin had grown around the seat. A newspaper report dated March 13 quoted Sheriff Whipple as saying: "... medical personnel had to remove her from toilet bowl because she was bound to it by 'natural means' ". She was not tied. She was not glued. Her body was physically stuck to the seat Pam vehemently opposed the move to have her extricate from the bowl. She said she need no help, that she was okay and that she doesn't want to leave the toilet. Kory- Pam's boyfriend of 16 years- told KAKE news he tried to convince her everyday to leave the bathroom. "She had a phobia of coming out. Most of her fears from coming out is from her relatives. She doesn't want to see them". Sheriff Whipple voiced out Pam's refusal to cooperate with medical providers and law-enforcement investigators. He stated authorities don't know if she was mentally or physically disabled. Finally- responders and Kory succeeded in convincing Pam that she be brought to the hospital for medical check-up. With a pry bar, hospital authorities pried the toilet seat off. The seat went with Pam to the hospital in Wichita. The hospital authorities reported she had developed sores especially in the part of her body affected by the toilet seat. The sores were discovered after the seat was disengaged by hospital personnel. James Ellis- a neighbor- said the incident after being played by media spread far and wide like wild fire. He said he had known Pam since her childhood and that he had not seen her for the last 6 years. He said Pam's mom died when she was still young; he believed Pam had an unhappy childhood. He knew Pam had once got a job outside her home but wasn't aware of the kind of work she did. The toilet incident doesn't surprise Ellis at all. It's the fact that nobody was called in earlier to report the matter surprises Ellis even more. Medical personnel estimated Pam had sat in the bowl for at least a month. She's now under the protection of a guardian appointed through the legal department of the hospital where she received treatment. Kory was charged in court regarding Pam and the bowl incident. On Tuesday- July 29 (2008), a judge sentenced him to 6 months for a misdemeanor count of mistreatment of a dependent adult. He was granted probation- however- after Pam, the victim, asked for leniency. Also that same Tuesday, Kory McFarren was sentenced a separate imprisonment of another 6 months for an unrelated charge of lewd and lascivious behavior for exposing himself repeatedly to a neighbor's daughter while having her bath in their yard in march 2008. Kory McFarren is under the custody of the police department. Another unrelated bizarre and unbelievable turn of events is Kory's winnings in the state lottery. The Associate Press, in its Oct. 7, 2008 news reported that Kory McFarren had bagged another $20,000 in the state lottery. It was his 2nd win in the same year 2008. http://hubpages.com/relationships/KO...rre-Love-Story |
