she is 5 foot, 275 lbs. thats alot of weight in a small package. remember, muscle weighs more than fat. so a lb of fat is physically more than muscle. be like comparing a ton of bricks to ton of feathers–both are a ton–but you will fill the room up w/ the feathers and maybe a corner w/ the bricks. so fatty’s feeling were hurt because she cant get in the mri. maybe next time she orders fast food, she will think about that. sad thing is, she is probably some sort of trash welfare rat and we are payin for her to eat as well as to go to the hospital. ---

Trust me I have delt with people like this. And not everyone has an open MRI. People in this area are spoiled because of the amount of hospitals and technology available in this area. We had to call the Pittsburgh Zoo last year for an instance like this to see if they could help. It’s a shame, but it happens. ---
