[QUOTE="Sally66, post: 1021743, member: 180087"] I've worked really hard at keeping my prediabetes at normal all over Xmas despite the odd indulgence. But suddenly as the holiday ends and the return to work looms my levels go up to low 6s when they have been 5s before food. The start of any term is always an anxious time as every teacher will tell you, even with 25 years of experience. However I have 2 recently bereaved 10 year olds returning to school. Both have lost their fathers, one on 19th Dec. My compassion goes out to them. Both children are friends of my son and one (who lost his dad last June) has been over a few times in the holiday. I know what a difficult time they are having. Helping them and their families is part of my job. How can I best control this normal compassionate response and keep my levels in check? Any advice on managing stress would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
