[QUOTE="Molly56, post: 934138, member: 84857"] [USER=204744]@patc47[/USER] ....just to say hello and that there are a number of partners of diabetics here on the forum too....my partner has Type 2 for about 15 to 20 years but we have only been together for the last 5 so nowhere near your 43..... Have noticed there have been a number of replies on here that seem to question the definition of 'carer' and I guess everyone has their own defintion of what a carer is.....in my case I would say that I care about my partner and what happens to him with his diabetes but am not yet a carer in the medical sense of the word....though my GP tells me that one day I will be... [USER=204744]@patc47[/USER]....am happy to talk and lend a friendly ear if you need one though I so far have no practical experience of being a partner dealing with the after effects of hypos as you describe as my partner seems to insist on running at higher levels... [USER=101136]@Jaylee[/USER] ...thanks for thinking of me....:) [/QUOTE]
