I've just had to turn over. How did they let that man's condition get that far out of control. Surely they could have operated early. I'd like to know the answer but can't face watching it- too much like a freak show.

I hope they can do something for him.

I am also incredulous that in a developed country someone can be allowed to get like this. I wonder if it is insurance related?

Seems so wrong to watch but I'm willing for a good outcome for him. Sad One of the richest nations on the planet and people still suffer. It's shameful.

Bloody hell poor bloke. That's no life. I'm thinking castration and a catheter has got to be better than living with those for the rest of his life. Let's hope it gets sorted for him.

Ah, he lives in Nevada and can only get medical help from Nevada, but there's no one there who can help him. Sad What a crap policy!

What's scary is that our healthcare system is likely to head the same way.
