Update on TorchTheWitch


I've been in contact with TTW for the past week, and here's what the situation is now for anyone that has been wondering.

The eviction took place the 6th of July. TTW did some couch surfing and house sitting at first, and then found a tiny room to rent in a house with other tenants. It's basically a rooming house situation, with a shared kitchen and bathroom, though TTW does have a tiny bathroom of her own consisting of a sink and toilet. The sink doesn't work, but she does at least have her own potty, and is grateful for that.

She told me last week that she had gotten "lucky as hell" with Yoshi, as a doggie-daycare place had, given her situation, agreed at the last minute to take him for as long as needed, with no money up front and the charges (if any at all) could be worked out later. They get an awful lot of donated food, so no problem with that. They said that he would have his own large pen indoors in the air conditioning, and the first week he was there they would call TTW often and she was told that Yoshi was doing great and was happy. The daycare is a distance from where TTW lives, and given that distance and her Monday through Friday job, she can only get there to see him once a week, on the weekend.

Last weekend, they brought him outside for her visit, and given that it was very hot and there was only hot concrete for them to be on, TTW kept the visit short so Yoshi could get off the concrete and back into the A/C. She had them take him back inside before she left, so he wouldn't see her leaving. She cried all the way home, but thought that he was doing all right other than missing her.

She called ahead again this week, a couple of days ago, and arranged to visit him again today. When she arrived, she was told that "he was sleeping" and that therefore now wasn't a good time, and that she'd need to reschedule. That set off alarm bells, and she insisted that they get him for her. After an employee huddle discussing it, they went and got him and brought him out.

TTW told me that he looked horrible -- he has lost weight, his hair is falling out, and he was listless and didn't even seem to recognize her. The difference from last week to this one was astounding. She got very upset and demanded to see where he was being kept indoors. It turns out that the "very large pen" is a very small crate, not big enough for him to even turn around in. There was no water dish. There is A/C, but not set cool enough for a dog with a coat like Yoshi's (the other dogs there are shorter-haired). When he's outside, the area he's allowed to be in is all concrete with full sun. When he's indoors, it's in the tiny crate with no water dish. TTW said that when they first brought him out today, he went to every available water source and drained them, and was still looking for more.

I spent over two hours on the phone with TTW tonight. She's terrified that Yoshi is going to die there, that he's dehydrated, overheated, and is being essentially tortured to death. She's afraid he may die in the next few days, if left there. She was crying so hard I could barely understand what she was saying a good deal of the time.
She has not yet been able to retrieve her belongings from the place she was evicted from. She has nowhere to put them, as it's only a room she is renting and a small one at that. The place she's at right now is unsafe, I won't go into detail as to the particulars, but it isn't a safe place to be at all.

She is working. Between the rent and gas for the car to get to work, plus basic living expenses such as food and toilet paper, etc.., she won't be able to get a place of her own for her and Yoshi for some time. She would need first/last rent + deposit, and she doesn't make enough to save that up for a few months out.

She's terrified that Yoshi isn't going to make it. She is doing all she can to get a place for them, she's doing it for Yoshi, but he isn't doing well at all where he is. He's in pretty bad shape already.

So yes, this is a plea, on TTW's behalf, for any financial help that anyone on DU sees fit to offer.

She desperately needs to get a place where she can live with Yoshi and bring him back to health. I don't have a target dollar amount. I only know that she's been working, has been doing what she can, and yet Yoshi is in dire straits.
I'm the one asking on her behalf. I don't know if she could bring herself to ask again anyway, but the point is moot as her computer is down with a virus and largely unusable. I figure it can't hurt to throw this out there (yes, again!), and see if DU can help some more in any way.

TTW has been beaten up and hammered for asking for help here in the past. If you don't want to help, if you think this all a scam, if you just want to stick another knife in because of some past issue with her, please keep your comments to yourself this time. Yes, it's a public message board, yada yada, but it's also hard as hell to ask for help and, in my opinion, deplorable to be piled on the way she has been by a few. Show some class and just go your own way, please. Please.

For anyone who can help and sees fit to do so, here is TTW's gofundme: http://www.gofundme.com/slumlord-escape

TTW is my friend. Thank you in advance for anything you can do for her, and if you can't -- at least, please, just leave it alone.

Thanks again.

5. Thank You Moose.

I received a message last week and am not aware of these new issues.

I'll send some paypal for Yoshi
. I wish I could get him down here so that I can care for him until TTW get's back on track. If anyone has transport help I would be HAPPY to take Yoshi into my home for a vacation!
Thank you for updating us. <3

I hope this thread doesn't turn into nasty.

guess somebody won't be buying hearts this year. hurray!!!

More like "mooseshit"  but yeah, it's BS.

What "doggie day care" place would risk injuring/killing their "guests"?  TOTAL BS!!!   Soon as word got out about it, their business would dry up faster than a mudhole in the Sahara.

As for TTW, I guess those 100 extra pounds and sagging boobs don't get the tips like she's used to.  Hope they reinforced the pole, and the stage.   :rotf:

*****TORCH THE WITCH AND YOSHI UPDATE******


TTW has reached out and accepted help. She is truly grateful to every single DUer for their support.

My ex is going to help TTW by accompanying her tomorrow to the place where Yoshi is being kept, and taking Yoshi home in the late evening tomorrow. Yoshi will be living in a large brownstone in Philly, with ample space and walks in Fairmount Park. That is the plan.

I will keep DU updated on this thread, and will edit appropriately. Please, and I ask this of the general DU community.....have compassion.

Look at my username. I don't ask that too often.

This is a situation that will evolve, and resolve over time, hopefully with all questions and concerns answered. I am asking for patience, tolerance, and the true Democratic spirit as we help one of our own.

I am not a believer, but I truly ask this community to gather their prayers, thoughts, and wishes that this situation work itself out, and that we, as a community, can put this one in the win column for both dog and human.

I hope DUers will still donate to her page, since she will still ned enough money to pay deposits for an apartment, utilities, pet deposit, etc., as well as for gas, food, etc.

But knowing that Yoshi will be rescued is going to mean the world to her.

It already means the world to me. I couldn't sleep last night, and I have been nauseous all day thinking about this whole situation and about poor Yoshi's suffering.

Thank you again, msanthrope!

why is this peice of shit witch not working again?

45. If I may suggest something...

the dog is sick. That is a given. Hoping he will still be alive actually.
But this place may want money up front for his release if they are as horrible as they sound. So here is what you may need to do....
be in physical control of him/next to him or actually holding leash....then tell them you are there to take him as he is sick.....try to set up Torche's payment plan but in reality if they give you any trouble you can tell them they could be reported.
Just suggesting due to possible issue that they may throw at you.
Unless you front the money and we help raise it for you to pay you back or something.

In DUmpmonkiez' stories of gloom and despair...everyone else is evil and cruel.... The 'Slumlord who really just wants his damned rent, the Animal shelter people who just want some money for taking in a dog, republicans for hating.... well... everyone and thing.

I find it amazing that in people so obviously hateful and those POSs at the DUmp that it is they who run into hateful people every single time they try to co-exist with the world...

All these breathless updates on the alleged mutt remind me of those hundreds of frenzied bulletins about dear Andy's health before coach put him on ice.

Half the DUmp had traded emails with him, or spoken to him on the phone, or visited his hospital room.

He was busier than TorchTheWitch on a 2-for-1 lap dance night.

This is another scam full of sock puppets and deceptions, but it won't yield a fraction of the money.

The Andyscam tapped into oceans of cash generated by the Great Bush Prosperity. 

The 0conomy is much, much leaner.

It tells you a lot about the everyday average ordinary DUmmie in their natural environment.
They won't contribute to Torchy's sob story.
So they whip up an animal sob story to loosen the wallets and purses.
Basically they are charitable to animals before people.

Torch has scored around $700 from the DUmmies since posting this sockpuppet tripe.

Now she has another DUmmy username claiming her ex-husband is boarding the mutt, so DUmmies are ecstatic.

Even Big Mo, who can't afford a can of paint for her slum property, kicked in $100.

And the most hated person at the DUmp is someone who's a little skeptical:

Doesn't anyone here care that we've seen no photos, not heard from TTW herself, Yoshi is supposedly with a poster's ex, still no photos, and there's a dog walker???

149. What I don't care about is your disgusting posts about TTW's situation.

There are several very long time DUer's involved in this first hand. I trust them any day over some poster feigning concern after admitting they are only reading these threads for entertainment.

The Andyscam has complete evaporated from their collective memory.
