When the doctor said my MIL recover we were veri shock but also happy lah. Constant Exercise, Control Diet, Take medicine on time & Stay Cheerful is the best method. Hope ur mum is NOT having "Can't be bother attitude" or "Better let me go faster". She need alot of encouragement and care, my MIL recovery the biggest credit shld go to my FIL. He every morning take blood sugar test for her, make sure she take medicine on time, bring her to exercise, cook the right foods and constantly monitor her got "tau chia" other sweet things bo. Best he throw away all the ice-cream, chocolate, change the white sugar to "EQual", and Stop us from buying their fav foods (Durian) to them. Writing this I then felt my FIL had done so much for my MIL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

applefreak 1 Report post Posted June 22, 2008 guess it's a process the lucky ones will have to go through some are not lucky enough to grow old for me it's really a balance of being healthy and enjoying life it's not worth it to enjoy life at the expense of health but it's also not worth it to be health at the expense of life's enjoyment it's like a piece of cake, you can slowly take bites or you can gulp it down in one mouth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greycat 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2008 Apple-jie, dont worry too much.....just as long as u continue barking at her everyday to eat, shd be alrite Btw, is ur mom on blood thinning medication? Or does she haf high cholesterol? If so, best to haf thorough regular checkups....my FIL was on blood thinning medication n didnt discover he needed a heart bypass until he went for random heartcheck cuz he felt tired very often. Cuz the blood thinner, so even if the artery is smaller/choked, they might not feel the effects until too late....am not sue if it has anything to do with DM II or nt but my FIL was on all sorts of med la... Jiayou!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
applefreak 1 Report post Posted June 23, 2008 no she is not on blood thinning medication the high cholesterol is not chronic, as in it'll be high when she over indulged but generally within range her heart is okay coz had it checked quite a few times liao ECG, EEG everything okay guess i'll just keep barking at her to eat maybe i can communicate better with yuki and donut next time :rofl: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
