Ok. So Sunday I basically did nothing all day. Because of this I was up ALL night watching the most random things on the Discovery Channel. You know you what I am talking about...you were probably watching them too..those shows that are either so disturbing that you can't stop watching them or so disturbing that you just can't watch them!
I started off my evening with the 700lb woman. Now I did feel very bad for this woman, but she also kind of made me feel a little better about my weight issues. She had gastric bypass and after a lot of complications and illness finally cam out as a thinner version of herself. Then just when I thought I had watched all the obese medical miracles of the evening, the next show was the half ton man. Now, I really didn't know what I was getting into when I started to watch this show, however, an hour later...I felt like I knew exactly what it would have been like to weigh as much as a car. I know I am making light of this situation and I did feel horrible for this man, however, I was in disbelief. They had to like take down and entire wall in his house to get him out and his skin was competely stretched to capacity. But don't worry, he also received surgery and calls from Richard Simmons and he is now living a pretty normal lighter life.
Now, still not being tired, I decided to partake in the next show, again really not knowing what I was getting myself into. Now, mind you..the next show was called "The two-headed baby". Um...ya....well this poor baby was born in Egypt and she happen to have two heads. Not knowing how graphic this was going to be...I decided to start my journey into the "two-headed baby". Now the show started ok, with the mother having twins and needing a C-section. I was also chatting online with a foo that was also watching the same show so I was not paying too much attention at first. Then they showed the baby with a second head attached to her head...now the baby was not crying but the second head was! ...As much as I wanted to continue my adventure...I had to stop....the train had arrived and I was getting off !!
Now, I am in no way being insensitive towards these people. I am just expressing how my night was spent. I also have to live with these images day in and day out...which will shape the way that I live my life.
