| I wanted to add that they were very clear from the beginning that diabetes was permanent, and they continued to mention this sometimes. They also confronted me, but not too often, in a gentle, matter-of-fact way with the possibility of later complications, but they never used this to scare me or motivate me to take care of myself - that would have been against their philosophy.
