Good point! I agree with you. We have it so much easier than what other's have had in years past. I have recently learned that the ancient Egyptians knew about diabetes too, and they had their own way of finding out how much sugar a person was holding....They used to actually drink people's urine to find out how much sugar there was in it. I will be forever grateful for the luxuries that we have today

We should probably all step back and think about how lucky we are to have insulin and meters. It really makes diabetes manageable. Even though it sucks so much to have it, at least we aren't living in the stone age. |
