It has been a while since I have wrote on here and I have been up to quite a lot that I am very proud of and some that I'm not so proud of. But as I have learnt over that past few weeks you can't change what has already been done.
To start off with, I went to a meeting with a bunch of Diabetics and it was amazing for the first time in a long time I was in a room where I felt so comfortable. I could get out my Blood Glucose monitor and do my sugars and feel that I didn't have to be embarrassed about it. I am doing a lot better about doing my sugars in front of people even my friends. I have also learnt to ignore people when they say things to me no matter how hurtful they may be. As long as you have friends around you and your family that is all that matters as they will never leave you.
It is important that you have people around you that you feel like you can go to even if it is your neighbours sisters cat... OK that might be a little far fetched but you get the idea. Once you have some one you can go to in your times of need or if you just need to have a friendly chat you need someone there. I have gone through the majority of my Diabetic life alone and that was a struggle and it was hard and it is something that I would not want anyone to do alone. Something that I have to stress though is that I am not alone anymore I have a family around me even if I don't live with them and I have awesome friends who I love to pieces.
I might not have the life that other people may have like been able to go out and get drunk or am able to go to my boyfriends (not that I have one) when even I want or do a lot of physical exercise, things like this for me take a lot of planning but do you know what I wouldn't change it even if I was given the chance to because I love my life, yes I have my ups and downs with it but who doesn't.
