[QUOTE="Dougie22, post: 1035961, member: 34509"] I I don't want to be hard on him (and I was no different) but he is so self absorbed in his demanding job, his wife and two young boys, that he has no time to spare to worry about my problems. I would imagine that, if pressed, he'd say that dad's his own worst enemy. He's probably got plenty of evidence to support this as he's seen me stuffing myself when I've been out of control and thinks I do that all the time. I think most people consider diabetes to be a fictional disease. Only those who have it really understand it. That's why the forum is so valuable. Bit heavy there....sorry. Also, I think most children think their parents are indestructible and are just kidding on when they say they are getting older. Two examples: 1. Oldest son (37) "I'm going for a 10k run tomorrow morning Dad. You should come." 2. Middle son (35) "I'm challenging you to a step challenge using my new fit monitor." Something's wrong if they cant beat a 18 stone, 62 year old! [/QUOTE]
