| | Back for support  Hello everyone, i must first say i am very sorry as it has been about 18months since i posted. but i thought i was doing well and didnt need the support as much
However i have been through the mill recently and i thought i might see how you all were. And perhaps meet some friends while im at it. I dont know any other diabetics and sometimes find it hard around my "normal" friends. Anyway would love to hear from you guys

| | | Hey Benfi,
Sorry to hear it aint going so good, I am always up for a chat with anyone, cant promise to help but usually can raise a smile, if you ever wanna natter then let me know, it helps to talk to those in the same situation as I find others can sympathise but not fully understand.
