Hey, HooiserMom!  

They sounded like they couldn't wait to get out of there.  "OK, see you tomorrow!"

I bet she stinks.  I’m sorry but all of those folds, just a breeding ground for dead skin, bacteria, etc.  Everytime they move her, something probably breaks free.  Apologies for being gross.

[PeaceLily2]

The black pleather glove.

[hoosiermom]

What's with the glove?

[Guest]

Oh, man. She's another one who wants to talk about her "progress" every five minutes. I do not think any of these people on this show know what that word means.

[Armchair Critic]

The newer shows I don't think they have been having surgery this early in the show. So must be some drama comes after the surgery.

Any bets on how much the lymphedema weighs?

[dreadfulLeigh]

That’s like a foot of fat 

[hoosiermom]

Boy, her mom sure looks unhealthy.

I can’t imagine that they don’t have a better way of helping her to stand.  Some sort of a hoist or something to do a little each day.  If she were to start falling those people couldn’t prevent it.  I can’t stand those belts they but around any fall risks at hospitals.  They seem barbaric.  They used one on my dad and I hated that.  Was one nurse going to be able to hold him up by that belt.  There has got to be a better way.

I had one on me when I had my knee replaced. It was a good thing. If I got weebly wobbly at all, the PT grabbed that belt and steadied me. But I'm not morbidly obese.  I agree there has to be a better way to stand up and walk.

Remember she has to go home. Old habits are hard to break. 

[emma1420]

I can’t Imagine being so young and being bed bound.  Not having any sort of life pretty much ever.

It's a big one -- 75.

My lord - I usually don't have a problem watching surgeries, but this looks like cutting into an elephant (and I don't mean that unkindly). So much tissue!

Hey physical therapy guy. How you doin?

He has such a nice voice and seems so gentle. 

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

OMG, looks like he removed a giant mushroom.

[Armchair Critic]

OMG her skin and fat chunks cut off on the table. *barf*

[QuinnInND]

GOD THOSE MASSES!!!!!!

I’ve never seen eyes so red.

Right?  That was so gross.  It looked like they just cut off a big chunk of her leg.  

[Ellie Godfrey]

Those fat blobs on the table look like the manatees. Without their Ts.

[IOU Payne]

Gaaaack!  That mass!   I can't even snack after seeing it!

[hoosiermom]

ok, get up and jog!

[Brooklynista]

Uh oh. Here comes the complaining.

[88Keys]

"It feels like I'm missing something now."  ???  Is that a bad thing?  I don't understand this person at all.  I think, mentally, she's already given up.

25lbs. I’m imagining a 25lbs bag of cat litter strapped to my legs. She’s gotta walk!! Maybe once she can stand they could get her in a pool for exercise?

 

wait- it feels like she’s missing something?!!

[Caoimhe]

Stuck waiting for control of the television but at least it’s recording for me!  At least this thread is keeping me entertained while I sit through my husband’s chosen tv show.  Why he refuses to watch this show is beyond my understanding!  

[JudgeyMcJudgyPants]

You are, you’re missing 25 pounds of a fatty tumor!!!

[Armchair Critic]

She has no life outside her bed, most of the people on this show have a husband/partner so I think she is really going to miss food in her life.

[PeaceLily2]

She got to wear that raggedy wig during surgery?  Hoping the camera man popped it on her head.  Seems like it would be filthy. 

[Miracle Maxie]

Wasn’t the miracle she hoped for. So she’ll find excuses to not follow the plan. 

[Shnoopy]

Is she serious? It feels like something's lost? 

[dreadfulLeigh]

Oh my gods, was she emotionally attached to her lymphedema?!?! Nooooooooo

[Guest]

Oh, the look of unbridled joy horror on Liz's face when Dr Now told her PT people were coming to her house to help her stand. 

[Shnoopy]

Woman! Get off ya ass!

That's why I ate my Reuben an hour before the show.  That was lots of sauerkraut looking stuff on that table.

[hoosiermom]

Someone will still have to bring her food.

[emma1420]

She sounds so disengaged.

[Armchair Critic]

I wonder if her mother and aunt are happy to have her back? I'm sure they love her but she was a big burden.

[debohinoh]

Only 25 lbs? Yeesh, I thought for sure it was 3x that.

[WhitneyWhit]

What progress has she made? I've yet to see her vertical.

[Guest]

OMG! "I'm proud of the progress I've made so far."

Lady...you have done literally nothing for yourself. Everything was done for you.

I feel your pain.  Mr. Judgey watches some really shitty shows.  I think this is the only show we watch together.  I swear, those fuckers on Oak Island are never going to find anything.

[dreadfulLeigh]

Some people have resting bitch face. She has resting derp face. Or resting Frog face. 

[Miracle Maxie]

How can she claim she’s made progress when she’s been bed-bound for the last six months and hardly did a damned thing in rehab? She’s utterly unprepared for the real work ahead.

Resting denial face.

[Kvv9862]

Why are all these voiceovers so damn dramatic

Is that really a wig?

She'll eat crappy food and  poop on herself and the incision will get infected.   Betcha

I will admit to having resting bitch face, or active bitch face when in a meeting with my boss.

Ugh, my husband made me watch that. Soooooo much eye roll. An itty bitty island; people looking for centuries?? Let it go. Just let it go.
