Poisoned apple. Huw

 Nothing is more natural than for a mother to feed her child.

There is joy and satisfaction in feeding your child. From the moment you begin to breastfeed and nurse to the day you see your teenage son shovelling in mounds of home-cooked dinner.


This is why my heart broke when I heard about the child that have been deliberately starved for his parents.

It is just so unnatural, just to be not getting joy from feeding but deliberately withhold food. The day that news broke. I was in a café and we were having tea and cake. My son had too large a slice of cake because he was only 4 and I was filled both with the fun and joy of my son, thinking he was going to try and eat this enormous cake, and hearing the news of the child that had suffered at the hands of his parents with holding something that brings me so much joy 

So when your child has diabetes, it is a sword sword of pain and sorrow and its the cruellest kind. Because the cruelty is administered to the most fundamental joy, a mother has live, and for her child, which is to feed him. with diabetes my child must inject himself with a needle so that he gives his body into him or else the food will kill him. In order to know how much insulin to take my child must use a different needle on his hands to make himself bleed so that he can measure how much sugar is already in his blood. It can be difficult, especially for about a diabetic as diabetes affect circulation, to bleed sufficiently for this test. bur until this test is completed we cannot even calculate the insulin necessary. until the insulin is injected he cannot eat. If he wants to eat in the next 10 minutes, he must inject yourself in the stomach. If he wants to eat in the next 20 minutes, he can inject his bottom or his legs. So there is always a delay. While he remains hungry. And during that delay, he must bleed sufficiently which he finds distressing as he feels he is failing. he cries out begging his body to please just bleed enough. And if it does not bleed enough, he must stab  him self again and again until it does, and only once he has enough blood, only once enough distress and tears and pain. have been administered and he can eat. 

Feeding my child is the simplest purest joy. And it is this simple, pure joy, diabetes, violates, and poisons.
