    Hi pastor, I had a friend that got insulin shots. Then he went to insulin pills. I believe they were white , and tiny. just like my grandfathers heart pills. There's a lot of diabetic candies.
    What if these diabetics slip? Well they might have to get a limb amputated. I had a uncle that was diabetic that had part of his leg amputated. How many chocolate chips cookies should i eat. I can eat the whole thing, but i shouldn't. This is a warning before i become diabetic. I have a friend who has a hypertensive glucose level. If you can help me out. Please leave me a comment, or two about your diabetic lenses @ Princess10's lenses.
    Thanks! Any questions for my lenses so far? G.B.F.N, and K.I.T. .
