In horrifying news from Australia: A deceased elderly woman's remains were found in her home 8 years after she had died. EIGHT YEARS. She vanished from the public in 2003 and no one, including her relatives, neighbors or government officials who continuously paid her welfare benefits into a bank account that sat untouched, bothered to find out why she had vanished.
Finally, the woman's sister-in-law called the police to say she hadn't heard from the woman in EIGHT YEARS and that's when they discovered her body. Apparently, the two had a fight EIGHT YEARS AGO and stopped speaking.
This is just bazaar. And terribly sad.
(Sorry... this is the only image I could think of to include with this story...)
