Dear all - I set off on the Type 2 trail about 6 weeks ago and at that stage had no understanding whatsoever about diabetes. My contribution to the forum so far has been minuscule but the knowledge I have gathered from reading all kinds of posts has been immeasurable. I just wanted to commend all who administer and contribute their experience to the forum - a vital resource for us all.
 
Hj @Robkww I'm another who learnt just about everything I know about diabetes and how to control it from this forum. I hope you will continue to post about your journey, sharing what you learn with others too. We can all learn from each other.

Hello @Robkww , ditto to all that's been said above. My diagnosis was 30 September this year, and would have been lost without this site and these people. How are you getting along? :)

Hello, I'm not too bad as at the stage I'm at the T2 seems to be manageable within a new daily routine - if I stick to it. My hat goes off to those who have stricter regimes or have had to cope for a lot longer with either of the varieties.

Couldn't of put it better myself, so much encouragement and support from total strangers with one thing in common!!! I just wish this level of niceness was shown outside of this forum the world could learn a lot from the people here .

Much love and great respect to all
 
What a fab thread. We should bottle it and gift it to the sad people of the world!! Ooops:rolleyes:, carried away again.... :D

I agree, I'm very lucky as I enjoy cooking and experimenting, and Andy is very amenable to whatever I cook. I like the idea that we're "beating" diabetes. Feels a bit :lurking: sneaky, cool:cool:. Still as I say, so far, I'm a lucky one. Hugs to all who are struggling at the moment...:sorry:
