Hi All, Im doing the DAFNE course on Monday for a week and I am absolutely petrified. Im scared i wont be able to do it and it will all be a waste of time.
Don't be petrified Laura... they won't do anything too complicated. Just make sure you shout out if you don't understand. And remember: if you're unclear about something and want to ask a question, the chances are the others will be too!
Look forward to it, get excited and think about the benefits... you'll sail through!!! 8)
Nothing to be petrified about, all is explained on the course and there is ample opportunities to discuss with the DAFNE nurse anything you don't understand. Sit back and enjoy the week and just remember that everyone else on the course are first-timers, I bet the week after next you will be back on here singing the praises of DAFNE to one and all!
Im normally fine with starting courses but with this one to do with my health and my getting an insulin pump dependent on it im really nervous! I have little self-confidence which is why i think i wont be able to do it!
I did the Dafne course Nov 2009 and it was the best thing i have ever done. It helped me with everything, all the information i'd been shown again on this course and it helped put me right where i'd been mis-led. If you have the opportunity, do it!
