[A_perfect_lady]

I have a younger sister who has diabetes. She weights close to 500 lbs, eats whenever or whatever she wants and then is upset because she's back in the hospital again. She's had her leg amputated, almost died from gangrenous gall bladder and now they are chipping away at her other foot and leg. With all of that it is not enough to keep her away from the foods she should not be eating.

Oh, that's horrid...

I agree, but I can't control her diet or exercise, only she can do that. I keep telling her she is digging her own grave with a spoon, but she only gets angry with me. She tells me it is not her fault that she is hungry. Her docs tell her she must be on a diet that doesn't include pasta, potatoes, cake & donuts and sodas (not diet).

She just got out of the hospital having another toe removed and guess what she wanted me to bring when I visited her this last weekend - Cheeseburger, Fries and a Root-Beer Float - nice balanced meal there! I brought salad makings instead and she called in for a pizza. What else can I do?
