Book- Navigating Change relative to Typ 2 Diabetes
The family plays a crucial role in Type 2 diabetes, particularly for
those who have recently been diagnosed. Support from relatives helps in the
emotional adjustment to the diagnosis but also facilitates adherence to lifestyle
changes. Family members can provide encouragement, share responsibilities related
to meal planning, and participate in physical activities together.
Active listening, offering reassurance, and
expressing empathy can signicantly alleviate emotional burdens.
