I'm pleased to report she did not say any of those. 1 minute ago, ThereButFor said: Anyone I knew in rehab was encouraged to wear actual clothes during the day! Admitted my knowledge is limited, but my understanding is that most patients are encouraged to get up out of bed and wear clothes.

I was wondering if she was going to go back home, and find Daddy, and Landon had moved and left no forwarding address. She plays with her butt wings more than Dr. Now plays with one of those 10 lbs of stomach he removes. Who is she kidding, she ignored that poor kid from the day he was born, for his brother. Why is she hauling Landon around like he's a sack of lard? That's how she used to haul her other son around. Let Landon walk and climb by himself.

The worst are those awful socks with the supposedly no slip bottoms. The only time I was in the hospital was in the short stay unit, for less than 12 hours. I remember wearing a fleece pullover robe-type thing, but I was only there for ear tubes so they didn't really need to access the rest of me once I was out of the recovery room.

Twopper May 7, 2020 Share May 7, 2020 Oh, good grief. I know I sound like a broken record every week when I rant that Dr Now needs to tell them to get a scale when they get under 500 pounds or so and to keep a food diary and write down every thing they eat in a day. Even if they only do it for a few weeks it might help them realize that they are eating more than they realize ( says the woman who made sugar cookies over the weekend and ate about 75 percent of them). 6 Link to comment

Can you bring your own pjs to wear? I cant imagine being in a rehab for weeks and weeks and wearing hospital gowns the whole time. I have been in a few times. I put on underwear, jeans, socks and sneakers, a bra and a zip front hoodie. I had to ask a tech to unhook the iv for a moment so I could put it on, but I got dressed! I sat in a chair or asked for a recliner. I did not stay in bed all day. When it was knee surgery, and I could not put on jeans, I brought elastic waist shorts with me. I was NOT lying around in that Gown of Humiliation. 8 Link to comment

Landon has issues because 'mama' spent all her time with the other child and Landon was an afterthought. I can't stand these obesees who talk about their kids.

I can't judge Landon based on that short scene. My first thought is like @Snarkastikate said - he may have been tired, intimidated by going to the airport and the camera and all of it. I don't think it's abnormal for a little kid to be withdrawn when a parent returns from a long absence. He needs time to readjust to her being home and may have abandonment issues from (a) her recent absence and (b) how she IMO neglected him to care for his older disabled brother. Of course, Dottie's spinning this in her favor: "I was afraid of this (his reaction) and that's why I need to stay home and eat pizza and smoke and never go back to Houston. Ever. Landon needs his mama." 5 Link to comment

DC Gal in VA May 7, 2020 Share May 7, 2020 OMG, what an adorable little ginger Landon is. Sorry for Dottie that he didn't want to hug her. Wonder what that's all about?

We occasionally did fast food, but it was more of a treat. 1 Link to comment
Wanda May 7, 2020 Share May 7, 2020 I’ve thought from the start that Landon is on the spectrum (as the mother of a 25 yr old autistic son I have radar). And I think Dottie is happiest with a child with issues so she can be a martyr. She’s trying to turn him into a mini Daniel with the Over the shoulder sling and taking him from his toys just to plop him down in a dark room in front of the TV with her. And in her mind she’s the only one who can keep up with his schedule so he doesn’t regress. He must have been flinging feces with just Chris if he regressed from what he does with her. Poor little boy doesn’t have a chance. 3 8 Link to comment
