| Had one of these conversations this morning...the lady said her sister had died a horrible death from diabetes. I expressed my sorrow for her loss and how glad I was that this lady speaking to me was in such good shape (she was a Type 2)...I ended the conversation with the suggestion that undiagnosed diabetics are the ones that are exposed to the most damage...and that upon diagnosis, there is different degrees of damage. She agreed.
It was encouraging to see her at age 78...taking Lantus/Novolog for Type 2 and taking care of herself...she just needed a little encouragement. |
