A Cure.

If there was a cure for diabetes, something that would make it so you'd never have to do another injection, or test blood sugars, or go to clinic, or go too low or go too high, would you take it?

Here's the thing, I'm not sure that I would. I've had diabetes for more of my life than I haven't, and now its become part of me, its something I've gotten used to, and I'm not sure how I could adjust to life if I didn't have to wake up every morning and do an injection.

I'd be the first to admit it, diabetes is a bugger, it's bloody annoying, after the 4th injection in the day you start to feel like a bit of a pin cushion and it's a bugger, but I'd rather do that than have to go through another operation that might not work in order to evade injections which I've been doing for ages anyway.

I find clinic annoying to be fair, don't get me wrong- I LOVE the nurses and the people, but it takes a few hours out of my friday every few months and the hospitals are too warm. But in the grande scheme of things it's not so bad if I'm honest, and like I say- the people are lovely, especially the nurses and doctors. I remember, I used to go a clinic in Leeds for my kidneys, I used to adore the receptionist, I used to chat to him a lot and had a great laugh.

Nah, I wouldn't take the cure if there was one, I'm sure for some people it would be fantastic and such a relief, but for the most part I'm just fine the way I am :)

Keep Smiling
Love, Tutti-Frutti
