Thank you I’ve seen so many bad things in my life as a Lifeguard & Firefighter, I came close to losing my life at a fire and have like many others seen things that no one should see. I have like many others lost so many friends and loved ones way too early so if I can bring a smile to anyone’s face I’m happy. I was reading lots of posts earlier and was nearly reduced to tears because of the fear and anxieties that some have on this site because everything they read is so very dark. I can’t help the way I feel or deal with my health issue and I do give it the respect that I should but if I look back on the things I’ve done like running towards a fire while others are running away I’d have told myself “I can’t do this I could die” but I dealt with it in the same way I do everything, give it respect but don’t be frightened by it. I’m sure there are some that will read this that will scoff or be annoyed but all I ask is that if you don’t like my way or my humour just move onto the next post. Through this forum I’ve been in contact with some amazing people and lots have made me laugh a lot but there is also great sadness & fear with othersI’m seeing a sense of irony? Once apon a time they where “balance” options.. (in the care free days.)
However. Metabolism was left out of the equation for some of us.
I also appreciate the “diabetes in a” motif.. it was (infamously) put on a coffee house receipt? from a derogatory employee. Reclaim “it.”
I get your comment..
