Martin Wants To Be Buried Next To His Mom

[@lisa-wx8rc]

He is not ready for change. He is not ready to save himself. All we can do is pray for him.

[@jeannetteburns1297]

Exactly what I'm thinking I'm sure that there is ppl who want a chance to get help and I believe they deserve it. As martian himself says he's not talking about it he's going to prove it and I've been waiting for him to show that he is trying to get help

This was a sad conversation but one that was definitely needed. Martin will wake up everyday full of new excuses to avoid medical help, so his time is rapidly coming to an end.

If he detoxed slowly, ate right, worked his way up over time to where he had enough strength to exercise he would drastically improve, but all that is very very very challenging for a man who's health is as horrific as his. He likes very slightly better from eating more. A person can almost always improve from where they are. His time is running out though.

[@Euterpe65]

I’m curious if smoking pills causes the same lung issues as shooting pills. The binders cause something that looks like TB. Lovely!! So now the person who won’t have a full course of antibiotics will not fully heal. Hopefully he’s lying. Blood infection is called sepsis… he would know if he had sepsis. Partially treating an infection often makes it recur worse. The main takeaway for unaffiliated people is to not rely on rationalizing unhealthy behavior. It’s a slippery slope. Often, indigents can be cremated by the county and loved ones can collect the remains. Or, help humanity and donate your body to research. That helps humanity so do more good in death than in life ❤
