Yeah, I read this yesterday on Google News and was disgusted. Another report said her legs had atrophied due to a prior illness, although I'm sure the lack of blood made them shrivel up to husks in those two years. I don't know wtf was wrong with this supposed "boyfriend" in this story, but I'm pretty sure he was partly to blame for her fear response, especially if the girl had prior abuse as a child - you know, the whole girl who goes out with guy like her father syndrome? Just a sad situation all the way around no doubt.
