HE'S A BIG BOY: I really hate when someone says these words to me when I am worried about a friend. It is like they think when someone reaches a certain age that they should know everything, even if they have healthy conditions. I had a friend in fl, and he had copd. I worried about him a lot, and his estranged wife would say to me, HE'S A BIG BOY, when I would try to get her to check in on him. I felt like she no longer cared if he lived or died. How do you have 2 kids together and not care a little if your babies' daddy is ill?
I have a few friends with diabetes, and one specific friend has a bouncy kind. Even the doctor does not know why, it will suddenly go from a high rate to a log rate and vice versa without warning. I have learned to see some signs when his is out of wack, but what many people do not understand sometimes is the person it is happening to sometimes can not see it coming.. His type of diabetes, the blood sugar changes so rapidly that sometimes there is no warning signs of it going up or down. I have seen it happen, he can be talking to me coherently and then suddenly he will be all spaced out and not following the conversation at all. The main reason I am writing this blog is someone said to me , when I voiced concern about him: HE'S A BIG BOY, HE SHOULD KNOW THE SIGNS. How do you know the signs when it shifts so rapidly that you do not see it coming, and it muddies your thoughts when it does to the point of not being able to follow the conversation ?
