The Hording Habits of Another Mother

A woman named Beth contributed this documentation of her mother's New York house. These photos were taken early in the summer of 2007. At the time of the photos Beth felt that things had improved somewhat compared to years past. More recently she reports, "I was gone most of last week... I came home to find out the upstairs hall ceiling collapsed as the roof is leaking and the weight of the stuff up there was too much... if anything the house has gotten worse... The entire house, the one bedroom apartment attached to it, a storage unit and a warehouse are all full."

Thanks to Beth for sharing these photos.
