Oh den I'm sorry to hear that.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Well they said because of my age and some family members who have diabetes it was always highly likely that l would get it weenie.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

I thought type 2 could be diet controlled?

That sucks - but just think these days the needles are tiny.

I inject five times a day and the needles I use are only 4mm long.

Anyway if you want to talk about it - let me know, always here :)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

No not in all cases as some still have to take tablets and some on type 2 have to have insulin due to the diabetic medication having a adverse affect on other ongoing conditions that they have.

Thanks dilli.:tu:

Sorry to hear this Den but, as Dilli says, you'll soon find it's no big deal. :tu:

Getting a bit fed up with my mum - she seems largely oblivious to my dad's situation and how her attitude is making his last few weeks/months more painful than they need to be. Right now he's caring for her a lot more than she's caring about him and I'm very disappointed. Frankly I expected more of her.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Same with me den, it was always a case of when I became diabetic. Still struggling with it now, but hopefully all the weight I have lost last few months should help the sugars.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Yes food wise changes are already being made but losing two stone more would be nice.

Sorry to hear about the problems with your Mum Osem and l do hope things can be sorted out.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Sorry to hear that Osem but maybe your Mum is not wanting to face the fact at just how poorly you Dad is. Thoughts and prayers are with you Osem take care.

I don't think a career in cooking awaits for me. I managed to burn scrambled eggs this morning. Toast I can do fine, curry I can do fine but eggs? No chance.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

What about whisking an egg into a microwave resistant dish, cereal dish fine, then microwave on high for one minute. Place the cooked egg between toast and sprinkle some onion salt on!

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Sprinkle on curry powder. Then you've touched all bases. :D

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Christmas presents or should I say that the wee one thinks me and his Dad are loaded. My little darling thinks he is being good at only asking for 3 presents ipad, Xbox one bundle and the iphone 6 LOL he has no chance in getting all 3. He needs to come to terms that we are now a one wage family and he can't get everything. I was tying myself in knots over this but no longer as this is just too much IMO.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

When we were younger we got what we were given and if you did not like then then that was tough.

Sorry to hear this Den, Maybe they will get pills to suit your case,
