[QUOTE="Ruth B, post: 725815, member: 111960"] Hopefully this won't sound too callous but if he is wanting the op then maybe getting sent home at last minute as his BS is too high will be some incentive to improve it so he can have the operation at a later date. Sometimes we need a specific kick to take it seriously. As for yourself, I think you do need to try and sit back and have some 'me time'. Carry on doing meals that are healthy for him but let him do or don't do what he wants for a while, if you keep trying to shoulder the whole burden you will make yourself ill as well. Try and think of yourself for a while, although I can understand it's not easy to sit back and see someone we love harming themselves. [/QUOTE]
