I re-visited this strip today, June 19th, 2013, and STILL find it both hilarious and also very, very touching, sad, and poignant. It means a lot to me because I used to weight 340 pounds before my surgery. So many of us use food to "wash down" the sadnesses in life. That is so sad, because once the days turn happy, we are stuck with pounds of weight which hold us down from enjoying life! And, from being happy. And, it takes years off our lives. And, from being healthy.
Looks like you have a whole new fan club base, Darrin! B)
I am a friend of your Mom's from Facebook. My name is Mary McKelvey. I live in Beckley, WV and I'm a doctor there. I love your cartoon. You are so talented. Your Mom put the cartoon on our support group site and we all love it.
