Hello DeusXM!
Not pointless at all! Liked the story very much. And good for you!
You know, I was a bit disturbed by your story... I'm appalled someone could make such nasty comments. Not only your injection is life-saving but, in my humble opinion, there is no more to it than taking a pill before a meal. Absolutely nothing disgusting about it really.
I'm sure that woman isn't disgusted when people blow their nose at the table... or burp... or chew mouth open... or put off their cigarette in their plate. Ackl That IS disgusting in my book.
Only while I was pregnant I had to inject insulin so my experience in that field is quite limited. I can't even remember if I did inject in a restaurant or not. But I did get comments... from family and friends. That I remember! Not nasty ones... but some found the injecting disturbing. Oh! They knew all about the reasons, they understood. After all, when you care about someone, you want what is best for them!
Is it possible... that the injecting bit disgusts people because many associate it with drug taking?!?? As in drug addicts... dark street... aids... overdose... etc??? Just a thought. I did wonder about that a lot when I had to inject insulin. A friend of mine used to call me the drug addict while I had to do it. Bothered me a lot.
What do you think?
Thank you for your story!
Everyone, have a great weekend... and continue to take good care of yourselves!!!!!!
