Hello Simon,

I cannot give up my diabeties. I have this for life. I am praying however that I can get off some more of my medication & so that is a on going prayer that I have had for the last 3 years. I too have many friends that are diabetic & so I have been able to help them out & to also give them some ideas of what they can do to change things so ... that's how I am feeling about this.

Thanks for your input Simon !!

Hi Tbear, I don't have diabetes but I do have Impaired Glucose Tolerance which can lead to diabetes. My mum and dad and mums 2 sisters have/had diabetes. I had to change my diet 2 years ago to low fat (for my cholesterol) and low sugar. I don't eat any sweets, chocolates, cakes etc and haven't for over 2 years now. Drinks need to be reduced sugar - it can be awkward if shops dont keep the kind of things I eat or drink, sometimes I end up just drinking water when I'm out!!! I praise the Lord this was found out when it was, otherwise there is a good chance I would be diabetic now. Through this new eating plan I lost 56 lbs, still need to lose some more though!!!

My wife has diabetes. She is type 1 so she has to take three needles a day and check her sugar levels 5 times a day. She is coping really well as she has only been diabetic for about a year now. It is amazing to see how God works through stressful situations. My wife used to be terrified of needles. She actually fainted once when she saw a thermometer that she thought was a needle. But now it is absolulely no problem. It became second nature. Praise God for his mercy.

God Bless you all

I don't have diabetes, although I know a friend who recently found out he was diabetic. He's been coping really well, considering he's been going through a lot recently. And he's quite young.
