You Guys Are NOT Going To Believe This!



Recommended Posts

The infamous Mr P saga continues, believe it or not. Are you ready for the latest installment?

Mr P was married on schedule (less than 3 weeks after burying the first Mrs P). Now Mr P has announced that he is going to adopt the new Mrs P's granddaughter (age 17). This girl has lived with her grandmother for a number of years because her mom is a druggie and totally out of the picture. Her dad, however, is still around and has been, not the greatest parent in the world, but not a complete no-show, either. He bought her a car last year, for example, when she got her license. And as soon as she moved in with Mr P and his (then) lover, he came over to meet Mr P and check out his daughter's environment.

Anyway, this is supposedly all the granddaughter's idea and she wrote her dad a letter requesting that he give his permission for the adoption (had it notarized and everything.....pretty savvy for a 17 year old, don't you think?).

It's pretty obvious to me that these two women (the new Mrs P and her granddaughter) are VERY street-wise.

My mother used to say that "there's no fool like an old fool". I'm beginning to believe she was right. I just hope they aren't planning Mr P's demise.

What comes around goes around I say!

Karma comes in many strange ways. God help him if he comes down with an illness and his new wifey ships him off to a hospital!

I really dont understand why so many people lose their understanding of what virtue and integrity is.

I sure hope he isnt being played for a fool, but from what I have read, it wouldnt surprise me if he is.

I think your mom was right, Carlene. Hopefully, Mr. P will be able to come out of this with his health intact, but with a few lessons learned.

Carlene ...This sounds like it could be an HBO movie. I sure hope the Man above is looking out for your friend Mr. P.

Thanks for sharing .

Carlene.. the more I read about this.. the more I feel sorry for this guy.

I guess I see it in another light. He was depressed, and this lady came on to him with both guns a blazin'. She pulled every, "you deserve to be happy", and "look at me help you take care of your wife" and more line she could throw at him.

Yea, he was still wrong for doing it, but I can see him being a weak, depressed man, looking for a way and was taken by someone who should have only been his wife's care taker.

Maybe thats just me and I only want to see good in people.

I'm not sure I understand your post. No one is spying on Mr P. He calls US (or DH, at least) and issues updates. He e-mailed ME photos of himself and his girlfriend, months before his wife died.

If he even TRIED to keep it a little bit discreet, I would have more respect for him. He doesn't. He flaunts it. And please remember....his late wife was a friend of mine.

I don't know. My friend, Ken, married his wife's nurse. His wife died of cancer, and the nurse was awfully nice to them. He was married to the nurse for several years before he died. His family wholly approved of the marriage and I'm glad he was happy after Pat died. I miss them both a whole lot, but I never even considered thinking that Ken was wrong for marrying the nurse. Pat would probably have liked that. Sometimes a person needs someone and caretakers are people who are kind. Maybe Mr. P just need someone to love. Maybe he just wants a new, whole family and the new Mrs. P can provide that whereas the old Mrs. P cannot. I don't think we need to think that a new wife is necessarily a murderer or a gold-digger.

I would have been the first to Celebrate Mr P's new life/love, if he had not moved the woman into his house the same week he put his wife in a nursing home. Tacky, tacky, tacky.

I would have danced at his wedding, if he had waited a bit more than two weeks from the day his wife was buried.

Widowed people deserve to be happy. I have been widowed myself - twice. Maybe I just have unreasonably high standards, but I waited until my husbands were actually DEAD before I started dating. But that's just me.

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
