[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 794858, member: 17713"] To be honest I cried myself to sleep every night for 6 weeks, thinking 'why' and why not my brothers!!! This was 30 years ago without the internet. It was a very lonely place to be in. Especially as there was that much information available to patients in those days. Glad you are here, and found this forum. There is support from folk that have felt all aspects of feeling different, .......parents, siblings, friends trying their best but really getting on your nerves!!!! It's hard but you aren't alone. Non diabetics don't really understand that we look calm on the outside but from the moment we get up no even during the night we have unseen 'thoughts' of should I eat that, how much do I bolus, what's my levels' etc....they do not understand this is in the back of our thoughts night and day..... Sure we can look as if we haven't got a thought in the world.... But we have to think a lot more than non diabetics. We understand this.... [/QUOTE]
