Ricky Naputi, who weighed nearly 900 pounds, died in November 2017, but before he passed, the 39-year-old opened up his home to reality TV cameras from TLC. The cable network aired his story Wednesday night in a special called "900 Pound Man: Race Against Time."

Naputi, who lived in the U.S. island territory Guam, was bedridden and confined to his home, unable to walk or to bathe himself.
Naputi住在美国的关岛,因为肥胖,他只能在家卧床,连行走和洗澡的自我能力都没有能力都没有。
"The last time I got out and enjoyed myself must have been years. I miss feeling the sun on my face. Miss showering, feeling water run down my body," he said at one point.
“我最后一次外出玩耍都是好些年以前的事了。我很怀念日光洒在脸上的感觉,怀念洗澡时洗热水打在身上的感觉”他说过。
But Naputi had also vowed to turn his life around. He was working on losing enough weight to be able to fly to the continental U.S. for weight loss surgery.
Naputi曾发誓要过回健康的生活,为了可以乘坐飞机去美国做减肥手术,也很努力地减过肥。
The show also revealed Naputi's loving relationship with his wife, Cheryl, his primary caretaker.

Naputi生前的真人秀也展示了Naputi和他妻子亲密的关系。Cheryl曾经是 Naputi的健康看护,婚后,Cheryl不仅充当了他的护士,还为他做饭、洗澡、帮助他上厕所,看起来,她的工作更像是照顾一个胖孩子。
The two met 10 years ago, and at first communicated only over the phone. Naputi was already obese, but still far from his heaviest.
他们在10年以前认识,第一次交谈只是在电话里,当时Naputi已近患上肥胖症,然而那时的他比最胖的时候好多了。
"He asked me for my number so he could call me up, so we could talk," a smiling Cheryl told the cameras.
面对镜头,Cheryl微笑着说:“他问我要了电话号码,经常电话我聊天。”
"When I went to Ricky's apartment ... he only cracked [the door] about an inch."
“当我去Ricky'的公寓时,….他离门框的距离大约还有1寸的样子,再胖点就过不去了。”
Three and a half weeks later, she moved in. The pair remained together until his death.
在交往了三周半的样子,两人住到了一起。直到Ricky'死,Cheryl都在他身边。
