[quote=Anonymous]My FIL was over 300 lbs for the last 30 years of his life. He died of brain cancer at age 73. All the posts on here are wrapped up in the fat issue, to shame or not to shame, yes it's terribly unhealthy, blah blah. OP's subsequent post says her relative sometimes doesn't come out of his room or bathe regularly. That's not because he's fat. Address that issue. My 300+ lb FIL was a much-beloved school teacher and, in retirement, was out and about every day, as much as his knee pain would let him. He was involved in community issues, politics, our lives, and was a generally wonderful person to be around. You can be those things when you're fat, even when you're eating McDonald's. Get off the fat thing. The relative seems to have much bigger issues.[/quote]
