all these depressing shows on tv.
one called Suspicious Minds - a show about all these people who have died and the show reveals how and why they died. among them was a little baby boy who was only a few months old when he died, he was such a cute baby. another case featured this 15 yr old vietnamese boy who was shot by his stepfather (who incidentally, looks like such a creep).
the other's called Shock Docs - today's is about people who are eating themselves to death. one of the guys weighs about 317kg and hasn't been mobile for 10 years, so he just lies on his bed while his family cooks for him. it's quite disgusting having to watch these people struggle to talk ... who would have known something like food addiction could be possible. one of them was saying how "when they eat, everything goes away and it feels better". hearing that just makes me feel so sad and not to mention, disgusted.
what i dont understand is that why the families of these people just continue feeding them, even if they know that eating so much is detrimental to health. i mean, most of these people can't even breathe on their own for crying out loud! they have to breathe with the help of a tube feeding oxygen into their bodies.
arghhhhhhh.
