This weekend was a funny one. Because we had a birthday to celebrate, the eating plan went out of the window a bit. In the absense of any real guidance, we reckon that it's probably okay once in a while.
A carvery lunch and a Chinese food dinner was probably a bit much for anyone, but T is still alive and didn't see an immediate return of the symptoms that disappeared over the first couple of days of eating a better diet.
I was offered the job on Friday, so now comes the period of negotiating start date, salary etc which, whilst a bit stressful in itself, brings welcome relief from the impending joblessness that I faced otherwise.
Next week we are going to Center Parcs for a much deserved (in my opinion!) break from reality for a few days. Obviously as T is bringing his pancreas with him, we will need to think carefully about the food that we eat. When on holiday in the past, we always overindulged. Not so any more - but this is not a bad thing, and I am certain that my own body is already benefitting from my diet having changed along with T's.
First appointment to see the Diabetic Nurse (DN) this afternoon. T has asked me to go with him for this initial appointment, and I am happy to incase I can be of any help with noting things down, or remembering questions. Not sure what to expect, though I reckon she might have things to stab him with. Just a hunch.
