Defiantly take the advice from the senior members they know what they are talking about. Since we are the same age, and we both have kids, I understand how you feel. Do you feel safe with the doctors, and have support at home? Those were the two main factors for me. Plus, after reading other’s stories, I know there are ups and downs, but for me the trade off is worth the risk because I want see my girls aged 4 and 10 grow up and not have a dad that is handcuffed to a chair because I am too fat to do anything with them or die from a heart attack…This I a very tough decision. This is truly a personal decision!!!! Hang in there and good luck.
