Thank you , just sick of feeling like my best isn't good enough. I had a hypo at work today, so I ended up running half an hour late (I'm a practice nurse) while I threw some jelly babies back. Haven't had any bother at work for ages so people were asking me if I was alright and what had gone wrong. I'm like, "I'm fine, my BG dropped a bit but I've sorted it out, it happens".
Like I said before, people's attitudes are the most difficult part for me. My brother-in-law's wife told me that I'm always going to have hypos and that puts my child at risk so she questions my ability to be a good mother! You spend ages trying to build yourself up and have confidence that you can have well controlled BG and be a good parent and then someone fairly close knocks you down with their ignorance!
I wish there was a way to make people understand better, but unfortunately, they're not usually that interested to begin with lol
