Raising Awareness

I'd like to raise awareness of this disease, because I am certain that my late husband had type II. It's just that it wasn't diagnosed.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing isn't it?

But looking back with hindsight, it is now very clear to me today that Cliff had even more symptons than I had. The last one being, "every time I eat, I have this bloated uncomfortable feeling" to which I advised, "you need to go to the doctor's".

Oh how I wish I'd known then what I know now ... he'd still be here.

Diabetes, coupled with his high blood pressure. He didn't have a chance.

If he'd been on the DASH diet, he'd still be here.

There are no words for the guilt that I feel.
