[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 2452738, member: 17713"] Thanks, always hoped for hospice care but without diabetic consultant seeing me in 2019 them as I tried saying to him. How can he advise palliative consultant without speaking to me? He didn’t even know how many insulins I am now on (was 4 insulins), routines, ratio’s anything!! I wanted to be prepared as NHS guidelines are so bad. If a palliative care consultant doesn’t understand complex T1 diabetics, the easiest choice for him to make is the NHS guideline choice!! I am worried and just wish that dr’s during all of my past two years had considered the individual. Been very tough at times. Been a rough, tough couple years with health and to be honest, I’m actually quite glad in my own way that I can just let go of living… the worst part being my hubby, and two dogs.. the two dogs are my biggest sorrow at leaving.., they won’t understand, but I just am glad that I know they can both visit me together in the hospice. That was important tome. I just feel sorry to be leaving them both behind. [/QUOTE]
