Hard Times

I started this program with such great intentions to stay an active part of the community and do my part on following suggestions for weight loss.. and then my mother received bad news and my health took a back seat. She’s 55, a kidney transplant patient, the transplant is failing after 13 years.. and now she’s back on dialysis. Well- apparently when you’ve been on dialysis for as long as she has (this is her second time)- it doesn’t work so well. Her arteries are calcifying. She has to have a triple bypass surgery and she’s too high risk for it, but other options are too dangerous long term.

I don’t know how to handle this info and I’m scared to lose my mom.

I did what I do best. I withdrew from all my support people and became inactive. Just stuck in limbo with my thoughts. I gained my weight back. It’s only been a week of her in the hospital and they haven’t done the procedure yet. They’re doing it next week- they say. I just feel non-stop sick to my stomach and the stress and anxiety is affecting my sleep. I make ok choices with my food and I’m getting tons of exercise walking around the hospital every day.. but it’s not doing anything to help with my weight goals and whole health. I don’t know what to do.
