I saw my mom deteriorate from the time she was 40 until her death at
62...despite being a diabetic, she drank regular pepsi everyday, ate A
LOT of sweets, and A LOT of carbs. Occasionally she would try, but
then she'd chuck it all and say "what the heck! who cares!"

When she had a massive brain-stem stroke, I had to see her on life
support (not pretty) -- sit by her bed begging her to wake
up...watching her body spasm...and then ultimately, I had to say "ok"
to the doctor about removing her from life support, so in a sense, I
feel like I killed her.

I can't help but think that had she taken care of herself, she could
be here to help me through this new diagnosis, and she would be a
happy, healthy person in her early 60's with a decent life still ahead
fo her.

I VOW to do what I can to not put my son in the same position that I
had to be in...

Hopefully, you'll choose to live the best life you can for yourself
and your own happiness, and for the peace of others who love you.

i held my moms hand when i was 13 years old as she died ,
from cancer , something she really couldn't do much about ,
she was 38 at the time of her death and it made me realize ,
there's nothing much you can do when its your turn ,
all the vowing and eating right won't mean ***



wow...I'm sorry you feel that way. Peace to you.


Diabetes is not cancer and most people dealing with cancer, my birth
mother and my foster included who died from cancer, weren't self
defeatist career victims like the percent troll.

Diabetes is not a death sentence, and cancer can be beaten a great
deal of the time. Not everyone is willing to quit before they have
started to fight.
