On Tuesday evening at her home in Samut Prakan, an exhausted girl was freed from the coil of a large reptile that had been encircling her body for about two hours.

A passing neighbor, who called for help around 10pm, heard her poor pleas for assistance.

In Soi Suk Sawat 84 in the Phra Samut Chedi area, Samut Prakan Poh Tek Tung Foundation firefighters rushed to the home.

On arrival, the person could still be heard pleading dimly for support. The apartment was in shadow.

The group had to tear into the locked home. At the back, they found 64-year-old Arrom Arunroj with a 4-metre-long php, weighing at least 20 kg, wrapped around her brain. The lady was dead but exhausted, her face white. &nbsp,

It took volunteers about 30 days to open her from the python’s handbags. She was initially treated and then taken to a local hospital. She had some bit sores, according to the rescuers. Although snakes are not venomous, their bite can lead to disease.

Ms. Arrom claimed she had been living alone in the home since her husband’s death last year and that she worked as a girl at a Bangkok children’s hospital.

She had left for work by around 8:30 p.m. for supper. She left the house, which is directly across the street from a rose bush, to do the dishes there.

While squatting, washing the panels, she felt a sharp pain on her right knee, looked over and saw a big snake attacking her. She tried to pull it off with her nose, but she was unable to resist its strength. The serpent wrapped its coil around her body as she rolled to the surface.

She had been attempting to free herself, but she ended up fighting for mouth and requesting assistance for around two days before a passing neighbor heard her and dialed for assistance.

Ms. Arrom was recovering from her suffering in a hospital.
