[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm also still reeling from my mom's death. I took care of her in home hospice. [/quote] You have been through so much. Bless you for being there for your mom, and congratulations on your upcoming marriage. I would approach this very carefully. Of course you would love to help your uncle, but your health is important, too. If diabetes runs in your family, I would look carefully at your diabetes risk, including if you have prediabetes. If you have a hemoglobin a1c greater than 5.7% or a fasting blood sugar >100, you have prediabetes. Most prediabetics will develop diabetes within 10 years without intervention. Ask for these tests and confirm the actual results yourself. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/prediabetes/basics/tests-diagnosis/con-20024420 I am a physician and I have prediabetes. My primary care doctor doesn't seem to think prediabetes is important, but the research data clearly says that it is. [/quote]
