In the one I saw, someone actually died in their sleep, and still her room mate smuggled take out in. It was so tragic. Sounds like you handled Snags’ worries really well.

As Corey mentioned, Snags seems like a very empathetic kid. That’s a good thing. I can eat banana pudding if I have to. Living in the south, sometimes, you just have to.

I am so sorry Snags got so worked up about it. He must be very empathetic. A lot of kids just can’t see that the people on TV are real. KWIM?

I understand people need to eat, even bedridden people, but yes, who is bringing them the volume of food that keeps them at the weight that keeps them bedridden?

I like bananas but only plain. Not as pudding, not under ice cream, not on a train, not in the rain…

I couldn’t help but wonder how people got that big. Saw a story the other day about a Mom from Texas who weighed close to 800 pounds. She’d been bed ridden for the past three years, and I couldn’t help but wonder, who kept giving her the food that she couldn’t go and get herself? She eventually had gastric bypass, only to die of heart failure two weeks after. It’s heartbreaking.

Poor Snags. If it helps, he can have all of my banana splits. I hate bananas.
