[QUOTE="MDAVIES65, post: 986005, member: 202602"] The hardest thing I find is what people read and believe in the press. Type 2 since 2008, but we are treated as the lowest form of life as we have brought this on our selves. I even get this from certain members of my family, who see diabetes as a hugh joke, but the do not have to live with the constant taking of medication/injections and ensuring that there blood glucose is with in limits. We are seen as a drain on the NHS, yet I have paid my dues into the NHS for 32 years. The family members that make the comments dont even work or pay tax' s or NIC but get every thing free. It makes me depressed, but I know I have to keep going. I eat the best I can to keep my BG's stable, and i have lost 2.5 stone in the last 18 months, and my waist size has come down fron a 44" to a 36". I now have skin like a rhino, due to these type of comments, but my life must go on so i can see my kids grow up [/QUOTE]
