In anticipation of the stump saga, I gleaned the following from various med sites:

After surgery, hospital stays last 3 to 7 days. People with other health problems may stay longer. I imagine a double amputation would warrant a longer stay.

Ideally, the wound should fully heal in about four to eight weeks.

A dressing using rigid material such as plaster is applied immediately after surgery and kept in place for 5-7 days. A non-removable cast can be worn for 1-2 weeks following surgery for BKAs. It keeps the knee from bending and preps it for a prosthetic, which also keep straying hands away.

Wound care is vital, obviously, and requires interacting with the wound on a daily basis. Activities such as 'tapping' are advised to desensitize the stump, again to prepare for a prosthetic. It is also advised to massage it to promote blood circulation. Don't rub the wound, it says. ha.
 
Munchausen's Syndrome is fascinating to me. It's easily the most embarrassing "disorder" to have an adult 'cause these attention-seeking behaviors are supposed to stop when you're a child, or at least a teen. I'm glad there's a big thread about them.

These single, childless women destroying themselves for internet asspats is funny. The Munchie Mothers make me MATI.

I know people do plenty of things for attention regardless of age, but wow this is fucking embarrassing. If you think about it, most adult self-injurers keep that shit a secret. Not Kelly, though. Her whole motive is attention.

I thought for some reason that she already had her legs amputated. Maybe that's because most of you Kiwis were saying amputation was inevitable. This couldn't have been what she wanted, right? It doesn't matter though 'cause now she'll get more attention (from us included).
 
I don't know whether to feel pity for this woman or to be disgusted by her. I usually stay away from the Munchie threads because something about Munchausen just creeps me the fuck out but since this got featured I made the mistake of clicking on it and everything I saw wholly sums up why.

I've been around psych wards before and I've been exposed to crazy people for most of my life so I've seen compulsive self harm type shit before but this ain't it. It's much MUCH creepier to me precisely because it isn't a compulsion but an addiction and I just cannot fathom being so addicted to attention and medical care that you would literally rip open your legs to the bone and rub shit in them to induce infection, receive skin grafts, then tear them off to start the whole process over again. Her pain tolerance must be incredible.

On one hand I kinda want to say this woman deserves what she's getting but on the other hand I feel bad for her. It must suck to be this psychotic.
 
A theoretical question for the hard-boiled kiwis ITT, since ya'll seem to be such experts on this deranged person - do you think that her being isolated on some island in the middle of the Pacific with zero internet or human interaction, except theoretically let's suppose air drops of supplies made by pilots who never once even look or acknowledge to see how she's doing, fix her unquenchable thirst for attention and thus bring her to some semblance of normal behavior?

I don’t know that it would curb her behaviour entirely, but it would surely have a positive effect because Kelly thrives on the asspats.
 
and because Kelly is one of the worst, no psychiatric system anywhere is set up to deal with her or give her help.
Maybe they can't cure her, but she should absolutely be living on a psych ward doped to the fucking gills on haldol or whatever instead of being left to do this. I think part of the problem is that the reaction society is having is reinforcing the disorder. She's suicidally addicted to medical attention, and as long as the medical community rewards her insane behavior her behavior will continue to escalate. They obviously can't ethically just let her die without trying to treat her, but they could throw her on a locked ward with supervision and heavy chemical restraints to prevent her from hurting herself. Maybe she'll realize that being put on a locked ward for a year or two every time she munches herself into the hospital isn't actually the kind of attention she craves, or maybe not, but that kind of dramatic intervention would still have stopped her from getting to this point either way. The fact that people threw their hands up at this case demonstrates a fundamentally broken medical/psychiatric care system. "Well she's crazy and we don't like doing wards. Better let her kill herself." is not the way a healthy medical community should respond to severe mental illness.
 
It's because of the thirst posters and retards who shit up every featured BP thread.
Here's good example of a thread about a horrifying junkie that pretty regularly gets people coming in from other parts of the site going "yea man I'd fuck it."

It doesn't just occur on BP threads though, it occurs with almost any female cow regardless of the ratio of men and women in the thread (though obviously it's predominantly the men who do it). It's not some unique crime to do it in a thread populated by mostly women, to imply as much is kind of insulting to everyone involved. Thanks Jersh, for trying to protect your beloved subforum from being "shit up" by the rest of the site. I'm sure m'lady will thank you.

You are going to be extremely shocked when you meet a woman irl.
I am woman 😔

Il would fix all of her problems. She would be dead within 3 days. Death is a normal behavior. Everybody does it.

probably, yeah
to munchies, attention (specifically, medical attention) is a drug, they're literally addicted to it. cutting them off from it cold turkey would be a good first step towards fixing them

the problem is that cutting someone off from medical attention is impossible because the western social order would consider that a crime against humanity. basically it's never gonna happen unless someone in her family essentially goes full fritzl on her lol, and even then, she knows that the outside world is still on her side and supports her, so as soon as she gets out she'll go right back to munching it up
 
Upon glancing through this thread and poll, an extremely autistic question came to my mind. If she was somehow magically able to keep her rotted, detached legs as a souvenir, do you think she would continue to pick at them or do you think she’d just move on to something else actually attached to her body? Fucking re.tarded question, I know. I’m just curious though.

you know...I can't believe I just thought of this in conjunction with your post, but I think her continually scratching, hacking and playing her detached legs like some air-guitar on the internet for the attention would be healthier than whatever other upcoming plan of self-harm she's concocting right now. I can't believe I just typed that out, but...it is what it is.

I think it's allowed to keep an amputated body part. Knowing her, she'd probably take a selfie with the disembodied, gangrenous, rotting legs and post it on Instagram as a "post-operation selfie!"

she's not keeping shit. she's going to be on obs for a while. they know what she is.

"on observation"

I get the sense that she's been given a really generous amount of painkillers in the last year or so- maybe since the grafts were done- and therefore she's medicated enough that there's not much pain for her to worry about.
Now that the legs are gone, she'll have to start on the stumps or find an alternative or they'll cut off the pain meds in about three months.

So beyond the Munchausen's, she's got drug withdrawal to go through. I missed if they did BKA bilaterally or decided to go above knee on one or both legs. BKA is easier to heal but those wounds were damned close to the joint.

Should still make you a little MATI, considering bitches like her and her ~*~mysterious blood disappearing disorder~*~ (she takes it out through her armpit) is wasting what's probably amounted to at least a couple gallons of donor blood and other finite medical resources. Like the rare but still existing assholes who are lucky enough to get a donor heart then kill that one too.

No, because she's got Munchausen's, not some OCD sort of compulsion to pick. Picking at a detached bit wouldn't give her the doting asspats of the "poow wittwe sick ballewina".

I doubt it. Sometimes you can but it's incredibly rare, AND these doctors know who she is (she's obviously a "frequent flyer")
 
I dated a traumatic injury physical therapist once, and I remember how pissed she’d get dealing with diabetic amputees that chose soda over walking, and how the person who just lost their legs to a drunk driver would’ve loved to have had that option.. so I can only imagine how disgusted her surgeons must be with her.

Yea but she's going to keep letting body parts rot away until she's a literal head in a jar. They ethically can't allow that to happen either right?
