What? You thought he should be in the chair with someone else’s waste?

He had a girlfriend? I guess there’s someone for everybody. No matter how much you love someone, I’d think there would be some kind of limit when your boyfriend has 2 years worth of poop in his chair.

somebody was bringing him food.

...and drinks, but no water. He was dirty, but not thirsty.

Lovely room mates he had.

What do you want to bet that this poor b*st*rd was on SSDI, and his roomies didn't get him help until the last minute because they were worried about losing their meal ticket?

People suck.

I believe in some states it’s a criminal act to knowingly ignore something where a person’s life is in danger.

It’s like malfeasance of a known legal duty or somesuch.

I believe it.

My old man is a retired firefighter.

This is not as uncommon as you would hope. We have cut out a big swatch of mattress around a person who had been laying there so long the skin and fibers had intertwined.

Some of the ones who can still move somewhat, have a 5 gallon slop bucket beside the bed that they hit more or less, most of the time.

Sometimes I wish I was like a lizard, so that when I get back from one of those calls, I could just open my mouth and crawl out of my clothes, skin, and everything.

What I don’t understand is how anyone who might care for them can’t do something to intervene to try to save their lives.
