One thing about what this nurse said bothers me. She said that after a particular vist by "husband" Michael she discovered needle marks on Terri, did a blood test and found that Terri's sugar was dangerously low. As a diabetic who has taken insulin over many years and now take it three times a day, I never see a needle mark on my skin. Unless he used a non-insulin type syringe. The nurse also says that he used "Regular" insulin. I have no idea what "Regular" insulin is.

At any rate, I'm praying for Terri all the time. I'm hoping she doesn't feel the God-awful thirst I had when I was developing diabetes. Not nice! I'm praying hard that Terri survives this latest starvation/dehydration, gets rid of the "husband" and starts to receive rehabilitation. God Bless you Terri and God Save you.

Insulin syringes are incredibly small. They do leave a puncture mark but you need a magnifying glass to see them.

In regular course of injections the smalled needle used is a TB needle. It does leave a distinct mark.

Regular insulin is an old time brand for rapid acting.

It used to be that Lilly Regular and NPH was all that was available.

Now there are probably 15 different brands out there.

Just think rapid acting insulin.
