The 1/2 ton mom had the same surgery I did, but she didn't make it, died a week later in the hospital. I don't think it was from anything directly related to the surgery, though. The 1/2 ton teen, his mom was prolly guilty of child abuse, IMHO, as she was the enabler for him getting so big. He had this surgery, too, & was down to a relatively-svelte 400 lbs, IIRC, by the end of the 1st show.
