Some of you may recall my mother was diagnosed with diabetes a few years ago, long after I was.
We were talking the other night, after I’d gotten the unfill, and she was really pushing my buttons about food, etc. Well, come to find out she hasn’t tested in three weeks! Partly because of the test strip game I posted about in the previous entry. She is feeling overwhelmed etc….
I will admit to taking pleasure on getting on her case over her diabetes care — I told she had no right to get on my case when she wasn’t taking care of herself, and she admitted I was right. She even knew how bad I had gotten last spring when I stopped testing, so she really knew she was wrong.
Hopefully I’ve got her testing again, and now she has some extra test strips to do it with.
