Hi there, welcome to the forum.

 

[almostthere64]

Hi!
My name is Pauline. I'm a 65 years YOUNG carer for my husband. He's T1 Diabetic. But he has also developed Neuropathy. I thought I would join the forum to see other people's experiences of caring for a Diabetic. It ain't easy!
We live in Devon. But we are both from Cheshire originally. Where we live has lovely hillside/wooded views and we are 2 miles from the sea front. It's very posh here, and we don't fit in regarding affluence! but the peace, calm, beauty, birds, flowers all help hubby's illness. I do all the gardening. I'm aertistic, like creating, love knitting, make him his socks so I know they will be comfy, I used to bake and sell it, I've worked for charities. I'm a frustrated nurse!!
Oh yes, and I rarely conform, which is why I didn't use the template probably.
I get very, very tired. I suffer from depression and anxiety and I find it hard to control my weight. We are both pretty impatient with greed, so we watch what we eat together. However, lack of proper exercise has slightly pushed my weight up. I was told last year that I am two points below the start of T2 Diabetes and since I lost a cousin last November, I have been warned! My dearly loved cousin was a perfect T2 diabetic yet died from a heart attack.
When my hubby was diagnosed with neuropathy, I started a Facebook page called Diabetic Neuropathy and Diabetic health. I wasn't sure what I was doing but all I do is post information, usually off other Facebook sites, like Diabetes.co.uk, that I think may help people. It's my way of fighting. We did get invited to go to India for treatment but the cost would have been too great!!! I was determined to find, if not a cure, but some way of stopping hubby's illness and I am still convinced that although we can't repair the damage to his body, we can make his body stronger and healthier by using food as medicine. By eating healthily. I think a cure for Diabetes will come soon too. But it will come in several forms. My mantra is 'Eat well. Keep your body in good shape' That way, you'll still be fit and well when they cure you!!
Good job I didn't use the template after all! Best wishes.

 

[Kph103]

Hi. I'm karl
Like olive don't know how to get the template but I'm 60. Live in Peterborough,Cambs
Have 2 dogs (boxers) love most sport . Have 4 children and 5 grandchildren whom I love all very much. Been married 41 years to Janet.

I am newly diagnosed type 2 just a week ago. Have read loads about diabetes but an still confused about so many things.
I've lost quite a bit of weight before I was diagnosed and am not too phased about changing my diet ( always been happy to try new foods etc)
Since being diagnosed my symptoms have almost gone so ,maybe wrongly, thought that my BS level must have dropped ( it was 20 at diagnosis) However I did a self test tonight and it's still the same. So a bit confused and fed up
