Woman stuck in bathtub for 5 days (Wants a Coke & smoke after rescue)
HAMPTON, Va. A 75-year-old Hampton woman was trapped in her bathtub for five days.

When she was rescued by a family member Wednesday evening, Jane Fromal celebrated with a Coke and a cigarette.

Fromal suffered slight dehydration even though she said she ran tap water to drink during the ordeal. Doctors said they would keep her at the hospital for a few days to make sure her muscles were working right.

Fromal told a Daily Press reporter at Riverside Regional Medical Center yesterday that she drew a bath Saturday afternoon to nurse a sore tailbone, but was unable to get out of the tub.

2. That just proves what I am always saying.
Notice in the article it said her dogs were right there with her? And her family had no idea and no contact for 5 days? Animals are your REAL friends in life, folks. They understand you and care for you the best that they possibly can. People leave a lot to desire in the unconditional love area. That belief proves it's own self time and time again.
