Red light.

Generally a caregiver should be helping someone who is wheelchair-bound to exercise for a set time every day. You know when you're in hospital and the nurses move your arms and legs and stuff? It's kind of like that.

I don't want the chair person dying of thirst or starvation, I want them to die from sitting in a chair too long! So if they had food an water, how long then? Or would they even die at all? I would've thought they would get blood clots or a thrombosis, an die. But then why doesn't that happen to people in wheelchairs? I think I'll have to go an tie someone to a chair an see what happens...

Alot has been going on in here.

Haven't you ever seen those documentaries about those wheelchair-bound large folk? They scoop them out with shovels and show you the undersides. Quite disturbing. I imagine it could be applied to a computer chair; however, there would be several variables making the time needed to be spent in the chair for such sores to sprout very subjective.

Hmm.. I wonder how to explain the wheelchair folk..

I know. Think Bagarn. Yagrum Bagarn.

Less than a week without any water.

I wonder how long it would take to die from just sitting in a chair.....

They have caused more deaths than you know

I've never heard of these terrible sores myself.
