I am debuting and I can't accept the disease

Hi, I'm debuting diabetes for 2 months my name is Merce and I'm 44 years old
This has been something strong for me and my family.We are still quite dislodged
I have 2 children and the little girl is more aware than me of my illness.
I do not carry this disease very well, I do not control my sugar well since my pancreas
Something still works for me and it is difficult.
To know what amount of insulin I have to put on I have to call my husband
Well I hope all this happens and see it more normal and can accept it better
Thank you

Hello Menchu
I am also new, I've been 3 years and a half years by type 1 for total residual pancreatomia
I still have many doubts because it is difficult to control but with time and patience it will be achieved
I encourage and fight that this life is very short
Enjoy what surrounds you that is very beautiful
all the best

Welcome, Menchu and Juanma.
Menchu, at first it is logical that it is difficult to accept something that is negative.
I usually give an example to try to be better understood:
Imagine that suddenly you find that you have a small tiger in your house and tell you that you will never get rid of it.You can do two things:
1st Ignore the tiger.Do not accept that you have it and ignore it.It may at first serve you, but as soon as the tiger grows it will eat you without thinking.
2nd domesticate the tiger.It is not easy and requires constancy, but in the end you succeed and you may even see positive things.You may not avoid ever giving you a bundle, but surely you have the command and you will keep it at bay.
Here we all have our tiger (or that of our children) and we can give you many tricks on how to tame it.
Courage, which is not as fierce as they paint it.
Health

Hello Juanma and Menchu !! I have a few years with diabetes and I had a little side, in the end we only annoy ourselves because if we do not take care of the complications come.
I have 2 children like Menchu and, for them, it is worth everything.
A kiss and a lot of encouragement.

Hi Merce, welcome.
I imagine you have type 1 diabetes ... if you are already putting insulin ...
It would be good if you talk to the educator nurse ... It is important that at first someone teaches us well what the disease is.
Ask what you want ... Let's see what we can help you.

Welcome Menchu!
My "tiger" is already huge.And I was also a time without paying much attention to him and you don't see the one that looked at me.But well, we already ever ever mess up and well ... You'll see that over time you are assimilating and learning many things.And those two suns are sure to help you fight (and your husband, of course).And here we are for what we can take a hand.
A kiss and a lot of encouragement
