you know I know a bit about this having issues in my feet myself including osteoarthritis and a bone spur on the top of my foot that I am having removed soon. That said the diabetes may cause the neuropathy or loss of feeling but let's face it what's causing the fracture in his foot is the extreme obesity. My brother is a diabetic too and one who has been one since he was a child and he is a modest weight and while he has issues with his feet healing he doesn't have a problem with fractures because he's not obese. In addition it tells me that he has done absolutely no regular maintenance or checks on his feet before this. To have allowed them to get so bad one of the routines of my brother and his wife who are both diabetic or to check your feet regularly to be sure they have no issues in them but like I said internal issues like fractures don't happen because both he and his wife or a normal weight. don't get me started on the insanity of the high carb diet either that was insanity from the get go and I believe I had even told lvl when he visited the cave of my brother situation and how carbs will absolutely out of the question to that extent

My question is this: isn't it possible to observe gangrene when it first starts?

I've seen full-blown gangrene, in the socialist paradises of the workers and peasants with free medical care for all, but I've never seen it in its beginning stages, unless I did and didn't know that's what it was.

When it first starts, it's a small violently-red type of sore that soon turns black.

Right?  Correct me if wrong.

So one would have to be blind to not notice it in an early stages, right?

If noticed early enough, it can be stopped in its tracks or its damage minimized, right?

So why would Kirk notice this and just let it go, especially since he was aware it was a potential peril for him, given his condition?

If I'm right that gangrene can be observed in its early stage before too much damage is done, I suspect Kirk noticed it too, but being the self-pitying lump he is, he just let it go.  Despondent suicide wish, or an opportunity for him to get himself permanently on the public dole, with no necessity for future time-consuming bureaucratic "reviews" of his condition?

And we also have the TheMastersNumbskull primitive, who's obviously brighter and more perceptive than Kirk, doing the exact same thing.

Gawd, the monstrous things people'll do for a ****ing welfare check.

I think that a requirement would be to be able to see one's feet before they can figure out if that sore is really a problem or not.

I'm diabetic and such a diet is not recommended.

For any sane, civilized human being, it's plain common sense.  However, this is a whiny assed, DUmmie victim we're talking about.

This is what absolutely stuns me; he's diabetic and KNOWS it, yet goes on an all carb diet? He's lucky he only lost a foot.  :thatsright:

If we were telling a heartwarming Christmas story, those two would end up meeting at a shoestore, sharing a pair of shoes, becoming lifelong friends, and their kids would grow up to get married.

But,since the monopods are DUmmies, they will die bitter and alone. Some things can't even be fixed by fiction.

They aren't called DUmmies for nothing.

I can't claim to be perfect. However, I have been able to manage my diabetes and keep it at type 2 for 11 years now. While the doctor isn't happy about my weight, I haven't gained any and I can still get around quite well. I didn't lay on my lazy ass for years at the taxpayers expense and only make my situation worse.

That's the problem with this DUmmy. He has no incentive to do anything but lay on his ass and let it get worse. He does have his own skin n the game but is too stupid and lazy to even try to do anything about it. I really hope that he eventually sees the light and tries to correct his situation. However, with his entitlement attitude and liberal/commie/democrat dregs that he calls friends, that probably won't happen.
I was on 2 pills a day to manage my type II diabetes. After 2 years of regular exercise and better eating choices I got down to one a day and now the doctor has me off the pills entirely.

Getting off the meds can be done but it requires effort.

Okay now, I'm confused.

I will admit I've never been familiar with someone grossly obese who lost a major limb. so I may be in outer space here.

Wouldn't someone who's undergone major bodily trauma (removal of a limb) and who's probably got a host of other ailments (heart, kidneys, stomach, whatnot), tend to lose weight involuntarily, instead of keeping it or adding on to it?
Normal people would tend to get smart and do things to save their lives. But this is a DUmmy here. If he last weight and saved his life, he would have to give up all that free money on the Disability Gravy train.

Remember kirk gave up guaranteed jobs right here on this board. Jobs that payed more than Disability. But Free money and unlimited time on World of Warcraft caused him to turn down every single offer.

Kirk will die young because he was addicted to free money. He made his choice.
