I am sorry for what you have had to go through, but this is absolutely believable. I work in the healthcare field in Europe and even we (I am a student in my first year and thank you for this article which has helped me realise what I was unknowingly resorting to) somehow blame a person's weight and diabetes for what they are going through without lending an ear. It should not be done, and I will sure to be empathetic in the future
