[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2130816, member: 372207"] Oh wow, not what you need when getting to terms with diabetes (or at any other time, really). I hope it came from feelings like fear and loss of control. Is it something you can talk about with her? Maybe write a letter about how it made you feel? (writing has the advantage you get to have time to think about how you say things and rewrite until it doesn't shout "anger" anymore, possibly preventing a new blow up. Ignore if this is a completely useless suggestion in your relationship with your mother) At a month in I wrote my food down in a description like '2 sl. wholegr., butter, cheese' or 'brocc., cheese, pork'. I did it in a time table (old fashioned graph paper with rows of the hours and columns for food, insulin, blood sugar, exercise, extra). Very enlightening, as I tested a lot to find out everything I could about this diabetes thing (diagnosed at 39, 3 years ago). It helped me a lot to understand what was happening when and why. Yes, of course! Could you start a list and we'll see what we can add? Suggestions are a lot easier made if we know what the questions are you are thinking about at the moment. There's still a lot of time before the 19'th :) Good luck! [/QUOTE]
