[QUOTE="Dippy3103, post: 167554, member: 23503"] Two things. Most importantly, my son (four today) having his Mum around and in good health as long as possible. The second thing isn't very nice. I work with a fellow t2, she is about ten years older than me. She walks with a stick and has recently had a nasty ulcer on her legs. She does not manage her diabetes well. I am ashamed to say it, but looking at someone who has awful problems and still does not look after herself does motivate me to ensure I don't end the same. She is such a nice lady too, so sad. I am lucky. I was diagnosed early and young which means I have every chance to avoid the nasty complications. [/QUOTE]
