In short, recently been diagnosed with typeII diabetes and all I'm hearing is:
"Uncle George lost his leg through that!"
"Margret!...Margret!...was it Eileen who had her toes taken off wi' that?!"
"Don't worry, some people with that can live quite a long time"
"Are you sure you should be eating that?!"
"Don't wear tight shoes"
I'm just getting my head round the news and although I'm aware it's a chronic condition these tend to be of the older generation and treat me like I'm 5 years old. Grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
