A Family Drama - Help!



Recommended Posts

I totally understand where you are coming from. Your heart gets so torn' date=' but your head is telling you something else and you end up in a complete battle with yourself![/quote']

The only saving grace is my daughter has horrible pregnancies. Had her appendix out during the first, had an ovary removed due to cysts forming during her second. Had kidney stones during both. The list goes on. The truly hated being pregnant so did get her tubes tied after grace was born. I can't tell you what a relief it was. I hope you're successful in having your daughter do the same. In the mean time, those walks on the beach sound so wonderful. Hope it brings you some peace while you wait for her to get her act together.

Aussie, my heart goes out to you. Drugs devastate families. I am a child of a drug addict. I really wish there was an easier solution, but there isn't. Al I can say is that my family was my savior especially my grandparents. Just keep on calling the kids let them know how much you love them. Take them places that you know they would not otherwise get the opportunity to go to.

By the time I got to Hugh school I had enough of the bull so I went to go live with my grandmother. I never looked back after that. But since in your situation your grandbabies have siblings it may be harder for them to actually leave each other.

Just continue to be loving caring grandparent.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
