The woman, 70, was hoisted in a large yellow net by FDNY paramedics from her Fifth Avenue home and rushed to St. Luke’s Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition.
“Firemen came down and measured the elevator door,” the building doorman said. “She would not have been able to get out of the door.”

You really gotta wonder how someone can get that big...and how they can stand it.
And these guys are lucky. They won’t have to take care of her for twelve hours in the ER.

17 firemen however have filed workman's compensation claims for sprained backs
Had to do one of these few years ago - guy weighed 850 lbs
Had to cut hole in side of house to get him out
Too big for ambulance - strapped him to mattress on flat bed tow truck
Should have seen the nurses reaction when pulled into emergency room unloading bay......
LOL I say that to people sometime.

This should free up some more donuts for Christie.
That old that big, 24/7 assistance.
Well, we know the plumbing in that apartment building was robust!
Her enablers, those who allowed and assisted in her condition should be arrested...there is no excuse whatsoever for that. YOU KNOW THAT SHE WASN’T RUNNING DOWN TO THE SUPERMARKET FOR HER LATEST FIX............PATHETIC
Have some good friends who are an anesthesiologist and a nurse. They have some interesting stories on dealing with the morbidly obese. Hospitals have all sorts of equipment these days for dealing with it. If you’ve been around cars much, think a hospital grade engine hoist for people, for starters.
I’d wager that her assistants were either government employees directly or being paid by the government indirectly to do so.
Anyone in the private sector would have raised red flags long ago, if for no other reason than the liability risk.
She’d be a queen in Africa.

So, what are the odds the taxpayers were footing the bill for all the food this monster has consumed getting up to size?
That also raised an eyebrow from me.....

I was surprised by that, too-people weighing 500 pounds or more aren’t likely to live much past 50-if they even make it to that-everything short circuits and does them in...
It is nothing to see an 80-90 year old running their business and doing physical work here-but not one of those people are anything that approaches overweight.
I can’t imagine allowing/enabling a family member, child or adult to get into that condition-it is abuse, in my opinion.
