I have to wonder about our society when the truth is kept at bay for fear of stating the obvious. I also wonder how things like this tie up our judicial system with lawsuits when REAL crime is left unattended. Since when is it overstepping the bounds of decency for a professional to tell a patient that she is fat/overweight and that this is a detriment to, not only HER health, but to our society as well. Not only that, but also to bring a child into a situation where obviously she cannot support or take care of the infant. Who suffers here? We all share in the burden!! I certainly hope that the NC Medical Board has the intelligence to dismiss this ridiculous charge. The Truth is always welcome and if your fat, you have no one to blame but yourself!!
