[quote=Anonymous]Sigh. My dad and sister both have diabetes. It has been even more tragic watching my 30 something sister, diagnosed in her 20s, completely live in denial. She chugs Diet Coke all day (literally, she went thru a 12 pack at my home in less than 2 days), drinks hard liquor when she goes out and orders the absolute worst entrees when we go out to dinner (if it is Italian, she is having the Alfredo, for example). She eats nonstop. It is painful to watch, and I tried saying things in the past, but I just bite my tongue now. Every once in a while she will get excited about meeting with a treatment team, but nothing changes. I know it is hard to make huge lifestyle changes, but this is killing her and she is just letting it happen. And she is trying to conceive. I hope if she has a baby that that will be the catalyst for change. Sigh.[/quote]
