pie-eater 207 Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 Morning Fat Fans! Been a bit quiet on Fat News recently, I think people have been eating but no fear here's some new news A new documentary is set to reveal the astonishing true life story of a woman who testified falsely to murder but was found innocent on the grounds that her burgeoning obesity could never have allowed her to commit the crime. TLC's Half-Ton Killer? tells of how, in March 2008, Texan Mayra Rosales, 31, told police officers that she had killed her two-year-old nephew, Eliseo Jr, by accidentally rolling on top of him while babysitting. Such was her 1,100lb frame, Mayra imagined her story to be believable, but after doctors revealed that the boy could only have died from a blow to the head, the reality that she was so big she couldn't move her arm, became her attorney's main argument for her defence.

pie-eater 207 Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 Sort of fat related news Obesity crisis 'will force hospitals to use super-size MRI scanners at zoos'NHS hospitals will have to use scanners from zoos because they are unable to cope with severely overweight patients, surgeons have predicted. Many hospitals have failed to invest in 'supersize’ equipment suited to morbidly obese patients, they said. Investigations by surgeons at North Bristol NHS Trust found only one in six hospitals had access to MRI or CT scanners capable of taking the heaviest patients, weighing over 35 stone. As an emergency measure, they will need to rely on scanners usually operated by vets as Britain’s obesity crisis means dealing with severely overweight patients becomes more routine. Hospitals in the US are already calling zoos to use their scanners - built for lions, gorillas, horses and cattle. Writing in The Royal College of Surgeons of England Bulletin, Sally Norton, a consultant bariatric surgeon, warned: “Failure to provide required imaging may lead to delay in diagnosis or inappropriate surgery – and, occasionally, enquiries into the potential use of veterinary or zoological scanners, with resultant loss of dignity for the patient.” It was not just a patient’s weight that could be a problem, she noted: “In addition, abdominal girth may be too great for the aperture of the scanner.” Ms Norton said: “In the US, hospitals are ringing up zoos to ask, 'Can we use your scanner? “Our obesity problem is going the way of the US, so it could happen here too.” Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Man Sues Airlines for Obese Wife’s Death 425-pound woman dies after being denied seat on airplane Janos Soltesz, the man whose wife wasn’t allowed to board a flight to get life-saving medical treatment, is suing the three airlines who denied her passage. His wife, the 425-pound Vilma Soltesz, was in her native country of Hungary visiting family, reports The New York Post. She’d flown there on Sept. 17, having purchased two tickets to accommodate her size. She planned to return home in October, for which she again purchased two seats. Vilma was returning home for medical treatment related to diabetes and renal disease. On arriving at the airport, however, the airline would not let her board, as she was “too fat to fly.” Overall, she attempted to fly with three carriers: Delta Air Lines, KLM andLufthansa . All of them said that they could not safely carry her home. Stranded without access to treatment, Vilma died on Oct. 24. Janos Soltesz is planning to sue all three airlines for his wife’s death. According to his attorney, the suit will be filed next month in Manhattan and will seek a total of $6 million in damages. Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Sorry for the lack of new Fat News, but here's some The story of a 625lb mother-of-six is documented in a new TLC show. Dominique Lanoise, 40, from Miami, Florida, has been virtually housebound for almost two decades with her daughters washing, feeding and caring for her. For the past 12 months she has been waiting for life-saving stomach surgery, but her food addiction has delayed progress and as a result doctors say she could have less than a year to live. Commenting on her situation, Dr Oscar Hernandez from the Southern Bariatric Center in Miami, said: 'She’s gone to town eating. there is no operation at these numbers. 'It wasn’t a one time slip-up it was a systematic assassination of her weight loss program.' Link to post Share on other sites

Alexander L 80 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 The yanks have a really frustrating legal system. Her kids, who feed her, would be ****ed if they stop. That would be murder, as they know that to stop feeding her, she would die. Link to post Share on other sites
