I hope you are doing better.

I suspect that, now that I am a Type II, something like this might come up. My husband already knows my opinion on this topic. He does not agree with me, but I am not one to... adjust to something like that.

Hopefully it will never come up, but that is delusional, since diabetes is impossible to treat with our modern available diet. (Unless you are wealthy or own a farm, they have you by the balls over this. The store owners know you have to have good food, which means they can charge something stupid for 'fresh' food while offering canned crap for way less. Yet, if one lives in the city, one will find it very difficult to grow your own food, which is part of the plan. (Most HOAs will not allow 'food gardens' that can produce anything of merit, so you are left with little choice.)
