Oh and by the way 90% of people who have weightloss surgery do not have problems with their liver and kidneys, lets not be dramatic.

It sounds like your mother was sick for some time, and ignored the symptoms and signs because she thought it was all apart of how one would feel after a big operation like hers. Again, it sounds like your mother did not take advantage of the support groups and educational groups that people are urged to become apart of post operatively.

I think your mad at your mom, for living you untimely. Her life was too short. My dad went into liver and kidney failure after having a bone spur removed off his spine. What was supposed to be an overnight event for monitoring, turned into almost 2 weeks of not knowing if he was going to live. Things happen, I am sorry for your lost. But please dont come here and rain on my parade, you need to locate a support group to assist you in your time of grief, not come here acting like a bully! Please go away and grieve with people who know you.

Thank yo for saving me the time of responding to this post....you said it just like i would have. Go Bridget!

That being said, I'm sorry for your loss. It sounds like you could benefit from the services of a grief counselor.
