Sally, please don't give up. We all care about you. Sometimes you have to just let family go. I did. I see my mother, but haven't seen my dad in 25 years, except for a 3 month period about 5 years ago to try and renew the relationship. It didn't work, so I don't have him in my life. The same with all 3 sisters. If they're counterproductive to your health and happiness, you may have to do that. But please, please, don't give up.

SALLY - We are ALL here for you; don't you dare give up your dream of a thinner, HEALTHIER body at this point; it WILL happen ! I think everyone has days where they believe they are not worth anything and the world would be better off without them. This is NOT true. If God had not wanted you here, He would not have put you here on the earth. You have taken care of many patients and been so influential in their lives in one way or the other. NOW, it is time for you to receive the same love and care - and it is US, the AMOS family who WILL be here to love and support you through this surgery. Please, know that we all love and care for you. DON'T GIVE UP -- A NEW LIFE WILL SOON BE YOURS !!!!

Sally, sending you a huge note of encouragement and my very best wishes. I want you to know that you're lovingly being thought of today, and I'm asking God to be your source of strength and to comfort your heart even as you read this. You are very precious to Him. Found Jeremiah 29:11 pre op...For I know the plans I have for you...plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. I especially like the part about giving us hope...we all need lots of it don't we? Our God is SO awsome, and you are SO precious to Him!! Please hang in there.

My dear sweet lady, what can I say to you. I feel your pain. I am divorced, no kids (never mind that I have lost 4, or I should not have divorced him). I sometimes feel that I am not worth the effort to loose the weight. I am sure I will never know what all you have been through. Please, understand that I *as well as many others* suport and love you. We want you to have that great life you deserve. You have cared for others and you should allow others to care for you and take the time and effort to make you healthy again. You are a wonderful woman that brightens our days here. I wish I had better words. Katrina

Sally S, If you knew someone who had cancer,Muscular Distphroy,or some other diesease, would you feel toward them as you feel towards yourself right now? You HAVE MO. It is a disease, you did not ask for it, did not want it, and have no control over it. If one of your patients needed surgery to cure them of cancer, or some other disease, (I am sure you have seen many in your time as a nurse)would you want them to not go through with it becasue it was too hard, yes you would very much feel for them, sympathize with them, and want to do what ever you could to help them, but you WOULD want them to have the surgery right? THIS is how we feel towards you. I look forward to your posts each day, pray for you each day, and hope each day will be a bit eaiser for you than the day before. You are a wonderful person, with a LOT left to give this world. I know it must be at times impossibly hard for you to get through each day. I hear that in your posts. BUT you CAN DO THIS! I know that.. you have not survived this far without a inner strength that many of us couldn't even match. PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP. Please.. We all love you too much to lose you. Tami

Hi Sally, hey keep up even though it is hard work. None of us know just what it is that God has in store for us, what He wants us to learn or perhaps to help teach another. You my dear, are not just a pretty face, but a beautiful soul and a beautiful person. Don't put yourself down, we can be so much meanier to ourselves than anyone else can be, and we should love ourselves more. Think postive, push those other thoughts out the door. Have you seen the movie, A Beautiful Mind? It isn't about MO, but man did he ever have a tough time of it! God bless you, and hang in there kiddo! Joanie

I too am SMO. I am 32 yrs old, 5'4" and weigh 400 pounds. My BMI is 69. I totally relate to all you have been posting recently. I laughed until I cried when I read about you getting dressed. Please understand I was not laughing at you at all, your descriptions were so vivid and I realized what I must look like trying to get dressed. At first I laughed then I started crying for all the pain and misery we SMO go through. I hope things get better for you know that there are people out there who care what happens to you. I'll keep you in my prayers. All my best.
