[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 952104, member: 30007"] [USER=209856]@Artisticforge[/USER] Whilst you may like to wallow in a pit of of self-despair (and given your disablities I can understand your point of view), there are many of us who choose not to. We are very open about our diabetes, live very full, active and fun lives and do our best to stave off the issues that can lead to physical disability as a result of our diabetes. There are two views you can take of life: 1. I am a victim of my conditions. 2. I am a human with a lot to give who happens to have a couple of conditions. I and many others on this forum have elected the second one. We have successful jobs, lives and families. Yes we have Diabetes. Yes, we know we are mortal. No, we don't care. We'd rather live life than sit there and let it waste away. I'm sorry if this seems blunt, but you always have a choice. I've been doing this for 27 years and I choose the positive path. [/QUOTE]
