Sort of like seeing your child ride his bike to a friend's house and you yell out "be careful".<BR/><BR/>My point is... that sometimes that phrase (at least in the South), is meant just to make sure you spend the time to get better and not push yourself too much... paraphrased... "be sure to keep your health and recovery a top priority and not being here at work which has little value compared to your physical health."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-13544749770965885562009-01-23T13:05:00.000-08:002009-01-23T13:05:00.000-08:00G-Ninja - "BLOG SLAP" them big time !k2G-Ninja - <BR/>"BLOG SLAP" them big time !<BR/>k2k2https://www.blogger.com/profile/04167099133092135850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20953083.post-79975546589977193652009-01-23T11:26:00.000-08:002009-01-23T11:26:00.000-08:00Ugh.

You know, if it were just about any other disease, people would be extra sympathetic and understanding, but because we're diabetic, if we have any other kinds of problems or get sick, they get all accusatory and nasty.
