| I think it is great you are trying to get educated on her disease. One thing to remember is that a diabetic...or at least I can say being diabetic I don't like anyone telling me what I need to be doing to take care of myself, I know what I need to do. I think you should be educated in the event something should happen to her like a low bg or high bg. Never ask what her blood sugar is...I hated to be asked. I don't mind sharing but I hated for others to ask...except maybe my mom. When I first started dating my dh he would ask me all kinds of things about my disease and I told him all about it. He never asked me about my sugars or pestered me about taking medicine. The only time he stepped in was when I was low and he had to help me drink juice or eat something but that was b/c I was so out of it. He hasn't had to do much for me, I'm self sufficient as I'm sure your gf is, sounds like she takes great care of herself. Understand that having a diabetic wife...if you marry can get expensive for supplies and you have to check into insurance coverage. With my dh he looks at jobs as to what type of coverage they offer and if it's not good then he passes up the job. I told him before we got married that it was not going to be easy being married to a diabetic but that never scared him off. There may complications but one never knows this, just as you may come down with a disease in your lifetime. Take each day as it comes and that's the most you can do.  |
