Mrs. Don-o got very good results from a type of gastric bypass. Maybe she can share some details with you!
I don’t think he will accept that, since his wife is “smarter than anyone I know,” and has pooh-poohed my attempt at giving him a book on the Atkin’s Diet, saying it was “bad for his heart.”
She may be smart, but she is not wise, and she is doing more damage than she knows. Which is why I didn’t bring it up again while they were here. I told him it was his responsibility to bury ME, not the other way around, and if he didn’t take care of his diabetes, that is exactly what will happen.
I won’t bring it up again. I have given him the info he needs to help himself, and keep asking if he has lost weight. He seems to think the insulin pills will make up for his over-eating. They won’t. he stands the chance of losing toes, then feet, then lower legs, plus having heart failure, kidney failure and blindness. It’s all on the ‘net for him to check out.
It HURTS!
