"You sound like you're doing a great job with your Diabetes. My grandson is used to me checking my BGs, injecting, and gulping down food. I concentrate on today because I don't want to live in the future all the time."

"Welcome! Great work losing 15 lbs. & on your wonderful readings in the low 100's. It must frighten your daughter when you tell her you're sick. Maybe you could tell her you're testing & taking meds to stay healthy."
