We’re all going on a sugar holiday…

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a week or two off from diabetes? Most people regard holidays as a time to relax and recuperate, to regenerate and come back revived and refreshed, but there is no holiday from diabetes, as yet. Let’s go back to a more innocent era, and climb aboard that big red double decker bus with Cliff Richard and the Shadows…

We’re all going on a sugar holiday,
No injections for a week or two,
Beer and chocolate on our sugar holiday.
No diabetes for me or you,
For a week or two…

We’re going where our pancreas works correctly,
We’re going where each beta cell’s new!
We’ve seen it on a website,
Now let’s see if it’s true!

Everybody needs a sugar holiday,
Eating things they always wanted to,
Cured and happy on our sugar holiday,
For Type 1 or Type 2.

We’re going to eat pizza twice nightly,
We’re going to drink a tipple or two!
And it won’t affect our levels,
The non-diabetic crew!

I hope one day we get a sugar holiday,
No more testing for me or you,
Come back cured from our sugar holiday,
If only it could be true..
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm…
