Guest guest Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Ginger, died two years ago, I think it was. She was a member of this group and a friend to many here. She wanted to lose more weight and at the time of her abdomenoplasty had a modification done to her stomach to provide temporary restriction. I am not inferring that there was a connection between her desire to lose more weight and her eventual death. She had complications and ended up in Intensive Care. She died nine months after her abdomenoplasty. Between those two events, she was in and out of several hospitals. The story is very long, complex, and no one knows the whole story. Her family, not surprisingly, reacted negatively toward WLS and even toward her friends (us). They were not supportive of her WLS to begin with, per my conversations with . The saddest part of her story is the fact that she left behind a wonderful, smart and funny son. He was one of my favorite people and I wonder how he is today. She only had a little more to lose. Her story reminds us of priorities. Marta > > > > However, lately the death of (Silentfox) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Kristy, I am so glad that you are letting Dr. Keshishian know about your health issues. I know you have concerns about delaying your childbirth plans. Lots of us have been faced with fertility issues. I was considered old for conception back in the late 60's and mid 70's. Back then (my boys refer to this as the olden days) there were not all the fertility options available. After being married for 6 years we adopted a baby and then I got pregnant in year 9 and 11 of our marriage. Let me say this. It does not matter how you get a baby because the emotions are the same. I remember as if it were yesterday the moment I looked at our first child. He was five weeks old and he looked up at me and stretched out his little hand and I was hit with this overwhelming wave of pure love that washed over me. Every night I would pray and thank God for the woman that gave up this beautiful baby. When he reached that bratty, rebellious teenage stage I would plaster his baby pictures on the refrigerator door so that I could recapture that overwhelming feeling of unconditional love. It worked. I remember changing my thankful prayer for his birth mother to " where the hell is she, she should be standing at this kitchen sink with me at 4 am waiting for this little stinker to return. " So it doesn't matter whether they are adopted or natural (called the hard way at my house) you love them all the same. Fortunately the bratty stage passed in two years and we returned to the peaceful equilibrium of our home.
