Hi,
was this normal to his general behaviour or a one off?
Would he be willing to come and ask questions and /or vent here with us?
I know there are many articles on the web about diabetes so could you print a few of the "friendlier" sounding ones off and leave them lying around for him to read?
I tend to joke my way through situations like this. I'm offered something I shouldn't have and say "Hmmmmmm this Death by chocolate pudding or keep my toes. ****,do I need toes?" and giggle.
Another thing I did was name my toes and when offered something would say that Edward couldn't have it. This would lead to a light hearted conversation that highlighted the complications of diabetes without being too dramatic.
I hope this works out for you sweetie. Keep posting, stay strong and know that we are here for you.

Heather.
