it doesnt make sense
Ive always been thne bigggest in my family.
I feel like everyone thinks im a walking heart attack...
Well today we got the phone call my cuz with the perfect figure not an ounce of fat went into cardiac arrest.
Her daughters and family have to go to Texas and take her off life support..
She is 1 year older than i am and we were very close til we hit 18 then we went diffrent ways..
But everyone says to me we thought when we got the call it was you..
crap i hate being the fat one, but i agree it dont make sense i know my heart works overtime but i only take my diabetes medicine and dont smoke or drink...
I have my upper gi saturday and then my paperwork can be submitted and maybe i wont be the fat one.
plus bein in better health to boot..
also please pray for her 3 daughters who are under 15....thank you
Lizzie,
So sorry to hear about this, and yes it doesn't make any sense...My 23 year old daughter had a major heart attack in May, and was 8 weeks pregnant at the time...She is doing well now, and the baby seems to be fine also...Due the 1st of Jan.
As you may know, my whole family has undergone WLS, in the hope of reversing some of terrible health issues that has plagued my family...including heart disease... I will keep you and your family in my prayers. And hope that you get a speedy approval. Amy
Lizzie I am so sorry to hear this...I too am from a family who has had heart problems very young..when my 40 yr. old (thin)cousin died of heart failure it scared me to death and the reason I had this surgery..my dad's brothers all died very young, 30's -40's and early 50's....though my father was 81 when he died of cancer he lived a sad life of bad health problems..weighing at the most, 156 lbs..so when I had this surgery I kept asking myself how can I reverse some of the damage I have done?..
Hang in there and hopefully it wont' take long to get your approval...whatever I can do for you let me know.
