Just checking to see how you are!

Thanks for the hug... I think that I am living in denial of what is really causing my weakness..I was diagnosed with Diabtes 15years ago, up to this point it has been controled by diet. From everything I have learned so far, and infection can cause a diabetic to become insulin dependent... I don't even like the very idea of having to give myself shots.. I don't even want to think of having to walk down that path it scares the living day lights out of me...
Thanks for you very needed hug
Love Barbara
