[QUOTE="Jellyb, post: 650766, member: 129042"] A classic for me this week when a well meaning colleague bought me a cheese and bacon pastry thing saying 'well, it's better than a cake'. She used to buy me scones all the time and when I was diagnosed she bought me a pancake/drop scone instead thinking it was 'better'. Then she looked totally puzzled when I said the nurse had said only six grapes. 'But surely fruit is good for you?' I've tried over and over to explain but it's getting to the point where I will just have to be blunt. [/QUOTE]
