Kidneys and Fatties When it comes to fatties and their kidneys, their negligence of their kidneys is extreme. Doctors tell them to cut back soda, they don't care because "diet" soda. Some think that if their kidneys are damaged, they won't have to pee as much. Then of course, there's dialysis. Dialysis is painful and those who been through it know the whole story about it. Anyways, I have a coworker who was affected by the deaths of patients from the dialysis unit; especially young fat patients. Coworker told me that she had a friend but was born with diabetes who eventually required dialysis. Sadly, she died at 21. This was a friend she knew since 3rd grade. And my coworker copes with this by telling herself that she's on vacation but sadly, she knows she's not coming home because she won't see her in person again. Instead, she visits her grave and speaks to her as if she returned from her trip and talking to her about the good times with her life and how she wishes she was there so they could hang out together more. My coworker would sometimes scold at obese dialysis patients telling them that they cannot have certain foods or drinks because of their health yet they manage to sneak in their "cheat" snacks when outside of dialysis only to come back to complain of severe pain. She told me that these people are so young and have so many chances to take care of their health but when they neglect their kidneys, they remind her of her deceased friend because she didn't have a choice since she was born with diabetes. Pretty much every time a fatass dies, others are actually affected. Sure they are worthless piles of lives yet in their early stages of their lives, they were healthy and developing but had so many chances to not let themselves get fat. But with the HAES movement these days, people don't seem to care. Life is more than just food and drinks. Eating shouldn't be a way to deal with boredom.
