I would have loved it if someone had just had the courage to sit me down, knocked me around the head, told me to go see a doctor. You've signed up to a diabetic website for advice about a colleague you're concerned about, you've been told there's a fair chance she might be end game, heading towards fatal DKA and should see a doctor now or she might die. It's up to you whether you tell her that or not. Niceties really don't come into it.</blockquote>
