If you're that eager to give them money, you don't need to wait for someone else to organize anything before you send the cash to them.
I bought the physical versions of his books and tossed him a few bucks. I'd rather not send a bunch of money to the Chandlers for a funeral that might not happen for a while. My point is this is like the house fire, even though it's Chris's own stupidity that's to blame I still feel bad for him.
 
I wonder who will organize his funeral if he does die, Barb is pretty much a potato at this point.

It's not going to be so much a funeral as disposal of a body. Health departments always have arrangements in place to dispose of bodies which relatives don't/refuse to claim or where no relatives can be found.

Who knows if they'd even use it for that, right? Assuming there's any surviving Chandlers who'd want to be caught dead claiming the bodies. @repentance pretty much summed up anything I could say in the case that no one would come forward.

-At this point I feel more for the poor animals that would be trapped in that burning hoard with them, after seeing how he reacted to the last house fire.
 
I have never seen a piercing wound so awful before. Its not normal that's for sure but we cant tell Chris shit were just damn dirty trolls to him! I am sure this has been asked in the 100 pages but I havent seen it asked yet. Anyone with medical background or with piercings, know what could happen if he just leaves it? There's no way he can keep it clean enough for it to heal on his own.
 
Does it involve cremation?

Here it can be either. The laws allow for simple burial or cremation but it will almost always be cremation in a large city.

Based on the pictures, it is healing. Yes there could be complications, but it could also just continue to heal without much fuss.

It's hard to say. Again, it doesn't look acutely infected. It looks like there's granulation tissue on the inside folds of the "labia", indicating the body is healing. I'm concerned the consistent exposure to urine and feces will continue inflammation, and chemical injury from rubbing alcohol, will hurt his chances of secondary intention healing.

That being said, a wound this deep to heal spontaneously can take up to a year. I'm not a plastic surgeon, so I don't know if it would be better off sutured (this could increase his risk of abscess formation or further infection I'd think). Either way, he needs to avoid touching it as much as possible, maybe put some topical antibiotic ointment on it, and otherwise keep the area clean.

There are a ton of things he could do at home to facilitate healing and protect the wound, but we all know Chris isn't going to drop $100 at the pharmacy for hi-tech dressings and one of the problems with someone like Chris going the simple route is that it requires disturbing the wound fairly frequently - every time he disturbs it he risks introducing infection.


Will the pseudovagina actually close healing on its own or will he always have the hole?
If he just ignores doctors and it doesn't get infected.

He'll definitely have a scar. He may even have a "hole", but a fully healed one. A chronic, open wound is also a possibility. As Chris is likely to become more slack at caring for it over time, that's not a good possibility.
 
Although this seriously can hurt if you use too much of it, a tiny bit of Hydrogen peroxide also sterilises wounds pretty fast. It does a better job than isopropyl alcohol, that's for sure, but you'd have to make sure that whatever implement you use to clean off the foam that results (H2O2 plus Catalase = H2O and O2) was clean, as otherwise you might as well be scrubbing yourself with a dirty rag.

Honestly, none of these cleaning methods would really make the wound heal any faster, I think. I'm pretty sure that the only thing doctors could do to get rid of the wound would be to excise any infected tissue, then clean the wound up, stitch it shut and then administer a course of antibiotics.


Using hydrogen peroxide is a common misconception for wounds. The bubbles that form from the catalase reaction is thought to have cleansing bubbles, but in truth its causing more tissue injury. If you get an injury and its a somewhat dirty wound, clean it with soap and water, and add topical antibiotic ointment.

Another MD, I take it? Fyi, not all counties offer corpse retrieval and burial. In Detroit within the past decade there was a time when noone was claiming the bodies and they all sat in trucks decomposing.

Back to Chris: He probably wouldn't know how to apply high tech dressings to begin with. I'd send him to plastic surgery to be evaluated. If his wound continued or got worse I'd probably get case management to get home health and a wound care specialist if he's unable to take care of it himself.

Longterm, if he DID continue having a hole or continued inflammation, he'd be at risk of more infection and ultimately even at risk for cancer in the area. But that's worst case scenario. it does look like it is probably healing at this time.

He will probably heal, it will just take up to a year, and he needs to stop probing it and putting on alcohol or hydrogen peroxide.

No, I've just done a lot of caring for people with chronic health problems and some nasty wounds have been among them. Advances in wound care technology never cease to amaze me. There's a "smart" dressing under development at the moment which will even read wound temperature (!).

How does the whole referral to plastics thing work in the US for someone in Chris's situation? Here, the government will pay for it if plastic surgery is needed to restore function or repair "disfigurement" but not if it's for purely "vanity" reasons.

And yeah, outpatient wound care clinics and community nurses doing wound care in home is an option here but I'm not sure what is and isn't free in the US.
