I am sure this was not directed at you.
One thing: it was a 600 pound woman on Montel from one post, And the
point was that being helped too much may have contributed to that poor
woman's demise.
and Dan's post sounded like a joke in reply.
That being said, I myself have had numerous people say I have made my
own health problems (like that ever happened, I had an infection for
heaven's sake), others say it was all in my head, and even labeled a
hypocondriac by a doctor, with the subsequent incredible disrespect
heaped on me by many many others.
The healthy can never understand what it is like to be sick. When they
get sick, they might begin to have an inkling. No one is healthy
forever.

Gentlemen...I am going to assume your comments have no relevence to my
post where I mentioned that I was just short of needing a wheelchair.
Although both comments were tacked onto the discussion between Mike
and myself.
Even if this is just an error...giving you the benefit of the
doubt...it was very insensitive...I don't know Dan very well but have
read many of Ode's posts and appreciated his sharing his knowledge so
freely...but both Dan's and Odes posts both reek of "Imusitis"...be
careful how you judge...you may find your words coming back to you one
day...in not very nice ways.
Altho I am overweight my problem lies in the deterioration of my knee
and ankle joints..one of the problems my body has to deal with
involving lack of Vitamin D and years and years of very hard work...as
a caregiver I did lifting and moving that my body was never equiped to
do.
Again...perhaps it was accidental that you both chose to make your
comments above the post I had sent...or maybe you are both feeling
extremely superior and full of yourselves today...however it
happened...your words were cruel no matter who they were directed to.
You don't know that woman...how can you make such judgements on how
she became trapped in her body?
Not an ounce of sympathy for her?
Enjoy your health while you have it...it will not last for ever. V

Somebody has to be bringing food in. How easy would it be to maintain
their diet to
something that would let them loose enough to leave the room.
Maybe it's the pizza delivery...

600 pound woman on Montel Williams.
"I can't exercise! I can barely turn over in bed. " [Oh , that's
horrible, you poor dear, says Montel ]
But Gee, what does that mean?
Not.... For you, turning over IS exercise?
And BTW, if you can barely turn over, how did you get to the kitchen
for so long? ...never mind keeping it stocked.
Well, she died a few weeks later.
Good helping friends can be your worst enemy, I suppose.
Prolonged misery and Death by sympathy.
Here, don't get up, I'll get that for you...let me help. [sigh]
