Posted: 12/13/2020 3:53:24 PM   I’m taking care of my mother after knee replacement last Monday. She will be 88 this month. I’m also working through the undoctored university modules. Mom is a noncompliant diabetic. Her fasting sugar has been 170’s or higher since surgery. I’m trying to get her to eat like I do with limited carbs. I heard her complain to 2 of her old lady friends on the phone that I won’t let her eat the cinnamon toast and date bread her friend made. I just keep telling her that she will heal better if her blood sugar is normal. I’m feeling frustrated! Tags:
