โIn 2023, that was me. A new pump I am scared to trust. That was my life. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. Keep going, even slowly.โ
โPlease be gentle with yourself, I wasn't, and it made everything harder, I pace everything now so if I do a lot Monday, tuesday is a rest day, no arguing, and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ
โIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. The worst part was numb feet. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back. xโ
โEighteen months ago I was exactly where you are. Back then it was diabetes burnout where I stop checking. Last weekend I went to a friend's birthday and stayed till the end. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. From someone who gets it.โ
