I'm worried and I could really use some advice on this. 

    My best friend is really scaring me.  For the past few months, she's been showing signs of diabetes.  But, refuses to get it checked.   And for even longer than that, sh's been obsessed over her wait and not eating right and everything.  I was im-ing her tonight and she said a few things that frighten me.  Here's a few things that were said . ..

 

    Lexy: this diabetes thing is getting worse
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:22:35 PM): my mom AND dad notice it
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:22:44 PM): and all week they keep pestering me about it
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:22:50 PM): usually it progresses fast
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:23:01 PM): it gets worse every day
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:24:35 PM): can you explain those nose bleeds? i bled so much i thought i was gonna die. bruises? they just appear and i don't fall or anything. thirst? i drank 3 fuzes today and they are 18 fl oz. and 3 diet cokes and a 20 oz iced tea, bathroom? oh gosh i mean every half hour
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:24:41 PM): i don't know the other ones
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:24:48 PM): but i can tell you every sign i have
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:25:20 PM): blurred vision, numbness in feet and hands, bathroom, thirsty, tired
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:25:48 PM): brusies i had for months now
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:25:53 PM): and they never go away
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:25:56 PM): Those are all signs. I think you need to get it checked out. Just think, Nick gets through it everyday. If it turns out that you do have it, at least you have someone to look up to.
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:26:14 PM): i better not have it
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:27:13 PM): both sets of grandparents have it

Lexy (6/27/2008 10:29:02 PM): dizzy gosh i am dizzy all the time
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:29:07 PM): and feel like i am gonna pass out
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:29:16 PM): my nose bleeds make me get worse
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:29:19 PM): i have to sit down
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:29:26 PM): cuz i fall

ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:38:25 PM): that's not good
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:38:41 PM): i know they need to make some that doesn't make you wanna eat
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:38:59 PM): no, it's not good that you don't take them
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:39:09 PM): well lets just say over the last 5 days i had 3 meals
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:39:26 PM): LEXY!
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:39:30 PM): ha
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:39:42 PM): but like i will eat something small
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:39:51 PM): seriously, you are starting to scare me too

ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:41:14 PM): Do you realize that by not eating, you are probably just making the whole diabetes thing worse?
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:41:20 PM): naw
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:41:57 PM): Yes. If you read the interviews that Nick does, he says that due to his diabetes, he HAS to eat, or it will act up more. By not eating, you body has to get energy somehow, so you get thirsty!
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:42:09 PM): if i already got it there is no use to try to change my eating habits
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:42:16 PM): thats why i drink alot
Lexy (6/27/2008 10:42:21 PM): see it balances out
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:42:52 PM): do you see the first thing on JBF right now?

Lexy (6/27/2008 10:51:11 PM): well when i eat i hide it in the sides of my mouth so people can't see it and i can talk

Lexy (6/27/2008 10:55:24 PM): i think i can live with that
ashleigh haney (6/27/2008 10:56:36 PM): OK, so I'm just going to go. When you feel like being the Lexy that I know, let me know.

 

 

 

I'm not so sure of what to do.  I want to tell her parent's but I'm not sure of how to break it to them.  The can see the signs too, but idk it's just awkward I guess

You just see right through me. If you only knew me, we could be a beautiful miracle, unbelievable, instead of just invisible.

Re: I'm worried and I could really use some advice on this. 

Yeah..i agree.

If i was you..I'd much rather her hate me for that first little bit..if it turns out to be as serious as you think and it sounds...she'll thank you in the long run.

Re: I'm worried and I could really use some advice on this. 

This is gonna eventually turn into life or death if she isn't careful.

My advice would be talking to your parents, then get your parents to talk to her parents. She can't let this go. She can go into a diabetic coma and never wake up.

This isn't something to let dangle, tell an adult QUICKLY.
