OMG, my kidneys just exploded!

OH MY!!! :o
and.... " Heaven's to Mercatroid"... ... LOL, havent heard that in a while ...hehe
-
that is not my diet Tom lol. I work too hard on trying to keep my nearing 50 SORTA girlish figure. Note the "sorta" lol. Oh well, I do try.. I knew I didn't have to write anything else except that because most of you guys know what I'm talking about. If not, my husband does not ever..you know what I'm gonna say right? Urrgh... I live in a constant state of worry. On a few occassions he has been inside the door of death atthe hosp. Most recently potssium 9.2. He "coded" 2x in the ER. I am sooooooo afraid this is going to happen again. I'm in a constant state of worry as he drives that he wil go into the parylsis again w/ his muscles fromhigh K, or have a caadiac arrest. (I can ot drive due to meds I am on). We as caregivers ae always checking in too see if our loved one is breathng by watching thier chest as we walk by. (you on dialysis may not know that but we do!) Well, I have a great concern that the day is coming of death. I'm sorry to write that, but it is REAL for me. It consumes me. I canonly do my best by makiing the right foods, but I'm no babysitter and of course as an adult, he can do as he chooses. Whew... Thanks for letting me vent that. I needed it today.

WOW, TS, that is all I can say. What a shame!!!
-
My husband and I have been giggling about this all night long. If my husband was the one with ESRD, he'd be eating like your husband, I guarantee it.
All he was lacking was a hot fudge sundae for dessert....with bananas.
-
Awww texie, what a nightmare he is. You'd think that his near-death experience(s) would have taught him a lesson, wouldn't you? Not least, that you don't want to lose him. *sigh*
*huggles*

i'd be investing in a boxing bag :boxing; :boxing; :boxing;

Am I right "Heaven's to Mertroid" is the saying the little Martian would use in the Flinstones cartoon???, or was it Bugs Bunny???
-
I would love to know what kind of diet that is. Does he actually eat all this crap?
-
This is from "The Phrase finder"
Heavens to Murgatroyd
Meaning
An exclamation of surprise.
Origin
'Heavens to Murgatroyd' is American in origin and dates from the mid 20th century. The expression was popularized by the cartoon character Snagglepuss - a regular on the Yogi Bear Show in the 1960s, and is a variant of the earlier 'heavens to Betsy'.
-
Yes he does Jean. He eats regular meals, but it's all the other stuff he adds in. He meal choices are not that good either. He was doing really good there for a while when he came home from hosp. last time. He still checks for K if there is a label on the food he eats. Problem is, so many foods don'thave labels. I knew it was from a cartoon! lol
-
Well I'd write my usual comments but really... you all know what I think.
I just feel for you TS - as usual - that his seemingly stupid actions not only theaten himself, but you. OMG potato, chocolate and tomato overload and he wonders how his K could get over 7?!! Heavens to Mergatroid indeed!!!!
As for your girlish figure, I'll send you a PM about that >:D >:D >:D >:D >:D >:D >:D
