Sad story about "the fridge"
A sad story, if you're in the mood:
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/playof...ory?id=6091766 Quote: AIKEN, S.C. -- Every day begins with William Perry needing help out of bed. Usually, it's 10 a.m. before he even gives it a try, and to support his 400 pounds, he shuffles to the living room on two legs that barely work and his sturdy black cane. Once he sits down, he and his chair are in a long-term relationship. He doesn't move, except to go to the bathroom, and the concerning part is that he has no desire to move. A home gym is just 20 feet away from him, but he mostly scowls at it from a safe distance. A walking path is only 40 feet away, but he mostly hisses at it from the comfort of his seat. His day consists of watching television and eating three or four meals prepared by his heart-broken wife, Valerie. She nags him to exercise, but says she gets "cussed out'' for it. She bugs him to take his medication but says she gets ignored over it. Her new trick, just to get him on his feet, is to tell him he has to come to the kitchen to eat his lunch. That's her best way to get "The Refrigerator'' to walk near the refrigerator. Of course, then when she least expects it, her husband will hobble out the door and into his car. She knows exactly where he's headed: to the liquor store. Because every day ends with William Perry needing a drink. |
His wife should start preparing him healthy meals.

Brain Damage aside, I refuse to feel sorry for somebody who won't help themselves.

That is sad. At first I thought that maybe Fraz shot him.

I feel more sorry for the wife than him.

This is kind of how I picture my own retirement.

I lived in Crested Butte Colorado after the Bears won the Superbowl in 85. I have some friends that run a snow mobile company. He could not ride it because every time he leaned, the dang thing fell over. I WISH to god we had had vidoe cameras then

Here's the really sad part. Just four years ago he was active and doing cool stuff. What happened in four years?

He lives real close to my Uncle, I'll have him go over and smack some sense into him.

My wifes grandmother has Guillain–Barré syndrome , she got it in her 60's in the late 1980's and believes she got it from a flu shot,
she is still alive, in her 80's but since she got it, she has been in a wheel chair and and has never been able walk no more than 10 feet with a walker.... she handled it well but it was sad to see an active woman reduced to someone who had to sit in a wheel chair all the time |
**** that piece of crap. He stole Walter Payton's SB TD while simultaneously butt-****ing and humiliating the team I root for.
