I don't have diabetes but I do understand what it feels like not to be helped or supported. I've had major health issues myself and - because the scars are not visible - people think I'm able to "do everything" for "everybody. I have to put myself first. My health first. If I cannot take care of myself, I won't be able to take care of anyone. I have to constantly remind my husband - that I can't do things. He's getting better at helping out. A little more understanding of my limitations. Do you have a friend or support group where you can talk about your diabetes and how to handle your diet and glucose changes? I have a friend that is on medicare and just the cost of the insulin for her blows my mind!! It's very expensive!! Maybe here you can find someone that you can share with. I will keep you in my prayers. Having God as my support system really helps me. Blessings

No, I recently lost my support group--my 2 sisters. One is going through a divorce and the other's husband passed away. So, for now I will use this site as my support system. I am Christian also, and pray regularly and read my bible. So I let God lead me. Thanks for your reply.
