This goes out to my "little brother (who got the skinny genes)."
He asked me yesterday...Kathy, "What are we going to do now?" I knew exactly what he meant without having to ask him what he meant. It's really sad that my family has revolved almost everything around food-not sure if it's a Belizean tradition (I'm first generation American) and/or a New Orleans tradition. As a family, Mita (my mom), Papa(dad), Tio John (brother), Mary (John's girlfriend), Daddy (Mike), Finn and I all need to think of things that we can do as a family that may include Food but where Food is not the focus. We use food for everything...rewards, comforts, appreciation, love and the list goes on and on. We need to delve deeper into discovering healthier/active options for the betterment of us all. This surgery is not only affecting my life but also my family members in ways that I had not thought of.
