Pros and Cons of Gastric Bypass Surgery
Quote From: wifeandmother I have just moved my mom in with my little family. Brought her up here to Colorado from Louisiana. She wasn't in the best of health when I got the call from family to go get her. She just seemed fine on the phone when I spoke to her, but when I seen her. She was so sick. My mom is 4'10 300 pounds. I brought her home with us (husband and kids) so we could take care of her. Now I have to bathe her on a daily bases and i hvae told my children to stop doing everything for her. If she wants it she has to get up and do it her self. She can barely wipe her own rear. She had gone 7 months without seeing a doctor. So she had no high blood presure meds are any of the other 5 meds she takes. I want to help her and I don't know what eles to do. For the first 3 weeks she was here Iwouldn't leave my house. I'm scared I come home and I find her dead. I have called a few doctors that do lap band to see if they would take medicaid, but no one will here. What do I do from here. I just can't leave her like this.. Please help... Does she leave the house much? Can she drive? Do people give her junk food? Do you keep junk food in the house?
