I'm still unsure of why she had surgery on her stomach. Her stomach wasn't the problem. Perhaps she should have had her elbows fused, to where she couldn't bend them, in order to prevent the motion of putting food in her mouth.

I had a really good friend that had that operation and died from it years ago. There were complications and at the time he left behind a 10 year old son.
It was a very sad situation.
I don't understand having that done unless it is absolutely necessary. And I hear the failure rate or people that lapse back into old habits is high.
It's a band-aid and doesn't solve the real issue which you mentioned above!
