This is now a National Story. It is featured on the KOIN (local CBS Affiliate in Portland Oregon) Web Site. If Westgate was serious about Settlement and truthful about how much they are losing every day they should buy her a Condo (what ever size she wants) of her choosing any where in Orlando, furnish it (she gets to choose the furnishings), and write a check for $1,000,000.00.

As soon as she dies, the heirs will sell. Then $ will be more important than principle.

Not really. Wastegate has offered the woman a new condo, offered to buy hers, you name it, but she refuses to sell. Which is great!

I'm very happy for this old lady and her family. $1.5 mil gets you quite a nice condo in Orlando. May she live to 120 and enjoy her time with family.

Apparently, under certain circumstances, TS's can be an "investment."

This was a very, very happy ending story. A little 82 years old widow defeat a giant. Good for her.
Thanks you little old lady for fighting for Senior Rights.

Congrats as well. But most likely it will be other unsuspecting seniors footing the bill.

For the widow, it was a condo that was the investment. Not the timeshare.
