Hi BERT,
As an Insulin dependant diabetic for the last 25 years,or so.
May I offer you my heartfelt thanks,for your contribution to this work.
I well remember the head nurses comment during my stay at the hospital,when I was first Diagnosed.
"YOU HAVE A LIFE SHORTENING DISEASE,REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOU DO".
So,I have a beer,A Bourbon,a chocolate,a cake,Whatever."WITHIN MODERATION"
And have done so ever since,
I thought,Heck,it Doesn't Matter WHAT,I do I am gone anyway,earlier in life than I expected.
I am nearly 58 years old now,got Diabetes at 32,
Drink my 3,or 4 Middies a night,as well as 5,or 6 Bourbon's,and Diet Coke,
Have done so,long before I got Diabetes,and Yes I am a Smoker.
I know,1 day I will Pay the price,
BUT, until then I will live my life as "I LIKE IT"
I have Known MANY,Friends,and Family,with no hint of Diabetes,who Have now Passed on,after Dramatically,changing their lifestyle to INCREASE their life span.
Bottom Line.
There are NO Guarantees,in Life,Regardless of what you do,to increase it.
All the Best.
John
So Far,So good.
