Hi Will, Yeah, OK Mom! She's just being a "MOM". She can't help herself. You are very emotional right now and need an extra dose of understanding, support and TLC and her remarks are cutting deeper than usual. Just smile to yourself and SHOW THEM ALL your medium to small bones....in fact go measure your neck, wrists and ankles now and do it again in 6 months. I have a diamond necklace and braclet that I can't wear anymore but back 60 lbs ago, they were loose on me. So your Mom just might really think you have big bones....just a thought. Remember, you are not alone! We are here for you and we have MANY BIG SHOULDERS AND BIG HEARTS!!! BIG HUG! Carol Percel
