A few quiet minutes later and a little further Gluco Type 2 Review down the road my daughter blurts out, "I don't have my ticket. I left it in my bedroom. We have to go back."So much for, "I got this." Ever since that day when my daughter tells me, "I got this" I tell her, "That's what I'm worried about." About a week ago, I was in the grocery store and saw someone that I have known for close to thirty years. We were not close, but someone I used to see almost daily and now only run into once or twice a year. She has type 2 diabetes.

Back when she was first diagnosed over ten years ago she told me one day how she came to find out she had type 2 diabetes. She told me she was on vacation and developed an infection on her big toe. The infection worsened and would not heal no matter what she did. The doctor she went to apparently suspected diabetes as wounds many times do not heal as they should when you have diabetes. He is the one that diagnosed her diabetes. Unfortunately, for my friend however, her toe was so badly infected it could not be saved and was amputated shortly after her diagnosis. Apparently she had diabetes for a while without knowing it. There are many, many people, an estimated five million people that have diabetes today and don't yet know it.

So, you are wondering, what does that have to do with taking your daughter to a dance and her forgetting her ticket? Remember when I said I was asking my daughter questions in the car trying to make sure she had not forgotten anything and she said, "Dad, I got this?" and then several minutes later she blurted out. "Dad, I forgot my ticket". Well, I guess to put it bluntly, no she hadn't "Got this." But she certainly thought she did.

Similarly, when my friend told me she had developed type 2 diabetes, and particularly when it had progressed to the point of her needing to have her big toe removed, I emphasized the need for her to attend a comprehensive diabetes class to learn more about the illness and how to take care of herself. After all she already had one toe removed, which is no small consequence of having diabetes. In spite of my strong encouragement to get education, the response I got was very similar to my daughter's "I got this", or "I know what to do". After hearing her response I tried again to convince her but my comments fell on deaf ears. She wasn't really deaf but you know what I mean.
