[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1601367, member: 429870"] Excellent news about the meter. When I got mine it took me a week to get up the courage to use it, and then a tense session of ineffecttually pricked fingers and wasted strips before I got the hang of it. (I expect you'll do better, it's really very simple!) Now I find it extremely motivating. As for your son-in-law's father, you don't say if he is T1 or T2 or what he was doing to try to halt the progression. Some people are still following their doctor's counsel eg to avoid "white" foods, which is excellent advice, just useless for those going in the direction of diabetes. Even if it is your and my fate eventually to have to control our health with insulin and other medications, we can still make all the difference in the world to our length and quality of life by our lifestyle behaviours. Jenny Ruhl is over 70 and Dr Bernstein over 80, both have been living and living well with diabetes for decades. [/QUOTE]
