I really do believe it was diabetes and my lifestyle which resulted in my amputation, we all know that poor control and complications go hand in hand but what I will say is it can take a hell of a lot of poor control to get where I was , I was carrying on as if I didn’t have diabetes, saying that I think the way diabetes was treated in the first 10 of my diagnosis years didn’t help , plus I guess as always with diabetes the individuality factor ,
I don’t ever feel that I got a “ raw deal “ life has to go on no matter what ,I never dwell on” what ifs” if I did I wouldn’t get out of bed in the morning , life is for living no matter what , and a positive attitude can make the worst situation feel better .
The saying there’s always someone worse off is very true so in the grand scheme of things in my own personal opinion diabetes ain’t that bad.
