Hi family, I saw a cartoon in today's paper that bothers me....possibly

because I saw myself as I was but also for all those who are just starting

their journey...or those who aren't ready or want the surgery.

It is Bizarro.... and a parody of the Tunnel of Love, only in the cartoon

it is called the Tunnel of Substitute Love...with a hamburger, ice cream cone

and a piece of pie on the sign. A very large/obese woman is in a boat....only

her boat is pig with an apple in its mouth. and she has cotton candy in her

left hand and a drink in her right.

I had the feeling of wanting to cry. Someday I am going back to Fiesta

Texas in San Nation and ride the giant swing seats. We waited an hour to ride

it and then I was too large to fit in the seat and had to leave and everyone

knew why I couldn't ride and some snickered and laughed at me.

Can I have someone killed or do I need a time out? or need to lighten up a

bit? Thanks for letting me get this out. in Houston

None of the above, . Have your cry. A nice long good one. It's cathartic

and it actually does something in the body to improve mood. And we ALL have

the right to cry over this stuff. We have ALL suffered at some point in our

lives from ignorant, or cruel, or insecure people who think it's okay to take

shots at those with disease and disability. That IS what we had, and still

have, and will always have to some extent. Can u imagine anyone getting away

with that kind of behavior toward a blind person or a cancer victim?

Me--after my good cry--I'd take pen in hand and write a blistering (but

educational) letter to the editor of the publication that printed what upset

you. THAT is also cathartic. And pro-active. And you will feel very good

about yourself.
