  2. I guess I EFT one thing out don't want to complain. I am my wife's full time caregiver she has been disabled in a wheel chair for 24 years five years ago she had a stroke leaving herewith no long term memory limited short term memory some communication problems. I have explained and her doctor has explained what will be done to me. I can't or won't make an issue that the bottom line I am having surgery because I have never known one day in my life as a normal person. I was 200 pound plus at 10 year old . Second and as important I don't want to die I have to stay alive as long as I can so my wife has someone to care for her. No way I want her ever in a nursing home. I don't like telling people about this too much because I do not want anyone to feel bad or feel sorry about the situation . I will make no excuses for my weigh problems it is all on me. Thank You

  4. My Dr suggested the vertcle sleeve because of medical problems. I went to the information meeting andca visit with the surgeon my wife wasn't interested in going with me. I decided to go for surgery my wife got mad we have went from fighting about my decision to the silent treatment to wherever are at now talking after4 weeks. She worries I will loose weight than leave her. I have been trying to make her understand I have not left her cheated on her or abused her in 46 years of marriage why would I start now. She says I did not talk to her about the surgery and make a joint decision. I told her it's is a decision I had to make for my survival she is not happy she is talking more postive. I am beingb selfish in iin making this decision the first timtime in 46 years
