A Grizzly discovery

Not putting this in to have a discussion thing about unless someone wants to add something.Just some thing that happened a few blocks from my house. On Sat. city police received a call from Toronto saying to check on a person at a certain address .An elderly Lady was not returing mail or anything .They went over to the house Sat. morning. and a Lady opened the door and let the cops in. Inside in another room was the decomposed remains of a Lady.The 56 yr. old Lady was arrested and body was taken to Toronto for forensics . Report come out to-day.. that the body was dead 9 years. She was lying on the floor in the same spot were she died 9 years ago. This is a lovely quiet neibourhood ,with nice homes and such. Working in the ambulance I picked up bodies just 3 weeks dead and the body was already decomposing and maggots and unbearable stench. I could immagine the odour in that house after a few months .I don't know how that Lady lived in there like that for 9 years. Sounds something like from out of the movies that Norman Bates had done to his Mother.Rumors of course all over the coffee shops,, One that the Lady was cashing the older Ladies pension checks for 9 years.This is something that has been done by people many times..Should get all the right details probably by next week.

Yikes, grizzly indeed! I wonder if after that length of time, the odor drops away. The body must have been pretty dried up by that time. Good lord, though, how could anyone live with such a horror. Very interesting that the body was not even moved.

Note of interest (or maybe not): "grizzly" is the bear; "grisly" is the none year old corpse in your living room.

After a few days, you kinda' get used to the smell. After that it's like "what smell?"

After a long time, there's NO smell. There's nothing left to decompose, so there's no more stink, which is the result of bacterial waste for the most part. Ew, yuck.

A 9 year old corpse probably looks like something out of Natural History, like when they find a humansicle in the ice on some mountainside, and call it Java Man, or whatever.

Don't ask me why I know about the stinky corpse stuff.

LOL! That's a good one.

No, but try to imagine a very eager pre-veterinary undergraduate trying to attain as much unusual experience as possible to put him ahead of the pack (the vet I worked for during college advised me that absent straight A's, GRE scores almost perfect, and a relative who is a vet, my chances of getting accepted as a NJ resident were slim to none).

So I volunteered during a summer at a morgue...actually it was as a mortician's assistant at the morgue which served as the human anatomy lab at a local dental school. The work itself was fascinating, mainly due to the fact that the person I worked for was one of the most intelligent people I've ever come in contact with, something I can still say 25 years later.

Another summer I....oh nevermind!
