Keeping Up!

I am going to write my final paper about obesity and the affects it has on health care.  I was inspired to write about it for my final paper because I thought it would be a good topic and after this weekend I watched a program on TV about people who were as large as 1,000 pounds and desperately needing help to get their weight under control and the affect it was having on their families.  And to imagine the expense it was costing the families and the hospital to get them the surgery and help necessary was unbelievable to me.  Because from what I saw the families didn't look like they had any health care so then you know they are either on some sort of assistance or the hospital is paying for the cost and that still will increase the cost for the others who do.  Anyways, that is going to be my topic and I hope it turns out to be as interesting to everyone else as it is to me.

  1. I think that will be a good topic. In my home state of Mississippi, it is a major concern.
