Good example why manufacturers only sell parts to licensed contractors and not professional homeowners

Real question is why didn't they turn it off or open some windows before literally baking to death

The heater wasnt working, the "kids" (in their 60s) came over, fiddled around with the thermostat wires till the heater turned on then left.

Decades old heater left on by someone with dementia who thought they turned it off but was left on. We had to put my grandmother into a nice home since she kept leaving the stove on and taking her medication enough times to OD multiple times. Now my brother is over there most days helping her out and when he's not the staff are. It's something like 10k a month to keep her there, it's a crazy expensive place but it's pretty nice.

We heard some horror stories as well so we did a lot of research before choosing a place. Every senior gets their own apartment or couples get one together. My grandmother is in a two bedroom unit. She spends a lot of time with the other seniors, mostly counting cards and taking their gambling money.

That's negligent homicide.

The heater, had a further safety cut-off. Even if not 'modern'. And thermal cut-out switches are a thing. If the murderer did that, simply hot-wire the thermostat to 'on', he probably also applied his retard-paste to previously disabling safety mechanism(s) in the heater itself.

Oh well. Fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. If he's that retarded ngmi.

Anons are seeing reports of extinguishment of millions of retarded. Minimum 17 million worldwide i heard, from the jab. Probably more like 150 million. Plus, generations of dysgenic breeding have created the kind of self-extinguishing idiot.

Someone said Guidestones were a plain statement of fact, rather than a threat. We have yet to see the great 12,000 yr cataclysmic cycle erupt, but we are very close. Like I've been telling retardanons stuck in egotistical retardland, get your boat ready. I don't need you to tell me I was right, when this is over. I however, have cultivated the right lifestyle, to be able to write this message, sitting here warm and cozy, that you should do the same.

I'm NEET and caring for my dad who had me relatively old (I'm 34, he's 86). Thankfully even though he doesn't show any signs of dementia, he has become incredibly attached to me, almost clingy, and always tries to persuade me to stay in his room if I ever want to sleep, game, study coding etc. He even encouraged me to hold off on getting a job so I can spend more time with him. It's kind of endearing yet saddening at the same time

i came into work one morning to find that the interior air temperature was about 100F. i think the furnace was on full blast when the batteries in the thermostat died, so it just kept running.

Sorry anon, but its worth the struggle. Taking your parents in is the correct thing to do.
I did prescription delivery to nursing homes after hours (gig job like an uber)
The mask comes off after visiting hours are over.
Every single home, even the huge expensive ones with expansive fake towns/stores inside them are all shit.
Filled with nurses aids (who arent real nurses, have no education, and get paid nothing) they mistreat the vulnerable. Overworked, didnt do thorough screening, get fed up and dehumanize the elderly they work with.

Abuse and mistreatment is everywhere, and if your parents or grandparents were good to you, dont put them into a home.
Not to mention, they exist to suck every last penny out of their bank account.

It was a depressing job when you realize how awful even the nice homes are.
Ill do everything in my power to not put my parents away in one. Not to mention we had a horrible experience with my grandmother in one.

The struggle is a righteous one.

1000F is still hot. That's all part the melting point of lead and will melt some aluminum alloys. How that heater didn't have a catastrophic failure before reaching that temp is beyond me. I'm sure the old man tampered with it in some way, bypassing temp controls and safeties. My guess is 120v wired directly to the heating element because who needs a thermostat?

>The couple’s family had last visited them on January 3, after the pair had complained about their home being uncomfortably cold. Upon inspection, it was discovered that both the heater and the hot water heater were malfunctioning. The family, unaware of the impending danger, attempted to repair the hot water heater before leaving the residence. Unbeknownst to them, the heater continued to malfunction, causing the temperature in the home to rise to lethal levels.
The plot thickens.
