Mazal- Yes! Having diabetes is very difficult but that does mean that we cant see our lives, health, etc in a positive light. Everyone has a different way of dealing with nisyonos- my way (and apparently most others on this forum) is to see the good in it, learn from it, become more sensitive to other people, and get closer to hashem. Now, this does not mean that we dont know of the complications that can come along with diabetes chv’. It means that we choose to gain chizuk from eachother without worrying excessively about the future and dealing with the present.
I think you should read throught this entire forum especially the last 10 pages or so and you too will gain a lot of chizuk from reading it. I apologize if I came across against you strongly that was not my intention I was merely trying to assure rebbitzen and coffeefan that they shouldnt worry so much about what you wrote. (you shld just bear in mind that we are all in the shidduch scene and the last thing we want people to hear is that diabetes is horrible and we cant live normal lives. I hope you now understand why we feel so strongly about what you said.) Hatzlacha and I hope you and your husband share many happy and HEALTHY years together!
