Serious question; how's your balance? Aren't the big toes important to a person's balance?
Buggered. If I walk more than, say, 25 yards, I carry a stick in case I start wobbling. If I turn quickly, all bets are off, and I can stumble quite easily. After the second amputation, I told the Diabetic Consultant that I should have taken his advice all those years go! Let's be honest, we're our own worst enemies in that respect.
 
Bugger. My youngest daughter is phoning the doc tomorrow for some new inhalers!

I'm also now more worried today than I was yesterday.
In addition to my pacemaker, diabetes, and high blood pressure, I am 70 today!

I'm now very much a basket (or is that casket?) case.

Happy birthday mate :-D

Sorry to hear that fella. We all think we're untouchable, don't we? The truth is somewhat different. I apparently was at a higher risk of contracting diabetes due to my mother having it. Ah well. If I get another 20 years, I don't suppose I can complain.

I was diagnosed when I had my mild heart attack 23 years ago -so mild I was playing squash again 5 months later.
When they told me I was diabetic, I said that William Hills wouldn't have taken any bets on me not being, as my mum was insulin dependent, and my dad and brother were on tablets! Not saying it's hereditary, but...
