Hi everyone, just wanted to say hello and share my story. At the age of 26 being told I had type 2 diabetes has hit me hard and just starting to sink in and convince myself I am not going to die! I am overweight and I am loosing weight so hopefully will lead a long and relatively normal life. I just can't get this sick guilt feeling out of me.
I am a single parent to a son who is only just turned two and have spent restless night crying about how I don't want to leave him at a young age. I have lost afew relatives over the last 10 years including my auntie and mum to cancer.
I dont have many friends and they only close family I have is my dad to whom I am his only child and I just haven't got the heart to tell him I know he will be devastated. I hate hiding this from him seeking to the doctors for things. I just can't seem to say the words :'(
