[QUOTE="ConradJ, post: 549214, member: 66676"] Oh yes, I remember those well: 'You're lucky, you could be in a wheelchair or something" or "It's not that bad, you only have to inject xx times a day"... If you keep any of your old Blood meters, dig out the lancet device and the box of unused lancets; then give them to your mum and say, "try this for starters: prick your finger before each meal and then two hours afterwards, plus once before bed, PLUS you have to jot down the results and how much you've eaten, plus what exercise you did, blah blah..." Give her a week... or two weeks if she's a real headcase. [/QUOTE]
