[QUOTE="kezz01489, post: 376708, member: 56339"] I'm a type 1 and hypo n hyper unaware which as a mum now can be very dangerous. I take my blood constantly through the day and watch what I eat ect . My husband works hard and we are proud of what we have. I recently read a post about a gentleman at 22 stone type two who feels he can't get a job cause of his weight his parents are asking for rent and he wants to know if he can get benefits cause he's diabetic. I have empathy for people and a good understanding of what life brings us but this to me makes me cringe. Thinking more about it maybe counselling or a greater understanding of what life will bring and that the importance of control and that unless the problems you have are not to do with bad control hand outs are not an option. Does this make me a stupid person or just realistic. [/QUOTE]
