    Type 2 Husband in denial

    Thank you, I can see that he is trying, but it's the blaming me bit that hurts. I love him and care about him. I am scared too just like him. It's like walking on eggshells. We had a lovely day out yesterday, but he kept dropping hints that he wants beer or cake, or fish and chips. I had made...

    Type 2 Husband in denial

    He won't test his blood sugar, he doesn't like the pin pricking bit on his finger he says. He did look at some machines thats was all. He has also said in the past that the nurse said he doesn't need to bother doing it. Who knows what the truth is.

    Type 2 Husband in denial

    Hi thank you all for your comments. He does not carb count, he really does nothing about sorting what he can and can't eat. One of the biggest issues we have is that he refuses to educate himself then keeps asking me what he can and can't have, and it's usually cake, junk foods or lager when I...

    Type 2 Husband in denial

    My husband has been to see his doctor after the letter I sent, he has not told me so but he has mentioned a couple of things that gives the impression someone has had a good talk to him. He has not touched any alcohol which is a big deal for him especially yesterday when he watched football...

    Type 2 Husband in denial

    Hi both thanks for replying. My response varies. I gently point out that he is not helping himself but if I sense is aggressive mood I am on egg shells because he blows. His dad died from pneumonia and Mrsa after surgery to remove his leg due to diabetes, so he is aware of the potential...
