Im doing this for my uncle
 
I recently was tasked with the responsibility of taking care of my 60 year old uncle. He has had 4 strokes, suffers from diabetes, high blood pressure, acute kidney injury, and seizures. Due to his strokes he has impaired eyesight and speech, his mobile skills have been affected and he requires 24/7 care. I am new to all of this and looking for a good support network and a convenient way to track all of his meds, blood pressure, blood sugar level, water intake and other pertinent information that will be vital to getting my uncle back to good health. Look forward to connecting with you all!:)

Welcome to the Forum! :)


Read through the first three threads in the Type 2 Section, when you get a chance, if you have not already done so. These threads will most-likely help you a lot. Self education is one of the keys to successful management of your diabetes, along with a healthy / sensible diet and exercise. Basically, diabetes requires a life-style change for the better. Good luck with your control and management.
