I purposely avoided Making anything.

My cookies came In a sealed box. (laughs) You're all spoiling me.

Oh, come on. Enjoy it. Whenever I'm sick,

I always milk it For everything I can.

Oh, I'm just not good with All this fuss. That's all. That's because you like To be in control.

Wouldn't you agree, Dr. Burton? I'm not gonna go there.

All I will say is that You both need to take it easy.

(chuckles)

What would I do Without you guys?

(finn) I like science the best.

We looked at a butterfly wing In a microscope.

About caterpillars. Let me tell dad About my test.

(trevor) hey! Toby jack leblanc, We do not hit in this house!

(indistinct conversations)

Thanks for your patience.

You don't fit the stereotype.

But about 20% Of type 2 diabetics don't.

That's 1-in-5.

Is there any history In your family?

Um, my grandmother, But she was overweight.

This doesn't make sense.

The symptoms have probably Been there for a while.

Have you had any Unexplained tiredness lately,

Walking up stairs, maybe?

Um, once in a while,

When I'm Carrying laundry or...

What about thirst?

I try to stay hydrated.

But after you drink, Are you still thirsty?

Sometimes.

(laughs) it's the south.

I've treated you for Two urinary tract infections

In the past nine months.

Taken singly, none of these Problems is terribly damning,

But viewed as a whole,

It paints An entirely different picture.

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. Can't the test be--be wrong?

There's always the possibility Of clinical error, but--

Let's take the test again.

There is another test, The a-1-c.

That would show us

Your average blood glucose Over the past few months.

There is no refuting Those results.

I want to take that test now.

(laughs) Only stronger.

That fish yanked me so hard, it Nearly popped me outta my boots.

Then snap! (snaps fingers) Broke me off.

Man.

I know, Then I heard this splash,

And mr. Fred had jumped Clear out of the water.

And right hand to god, t.J.,

That fish Was as big as my arm.

Did you ever hook him again?

Nope. That's why I've been Waiting to bring you out here.

(indistinct conversations)

Hey.

Scrounger's stable.

Chopper's flying him To baghdad.

I mean, we may not have A lot of stuff,

But we've got plenty of things That other people don't have. Like lucky?

(laughs) yeah, like lucky.

But also like a roof Over our heads

And clothes on our back And food in our bellies.

A lot of people don't even Have that. They don't?

That's my plan.

(michael) diabetes?

You're sure?

(dr. Jernigan) we performed Two different tests.

How is that possible?

Claudia joy takes care Of herself. She's--

We've been over this, Michael.

We don't understand How diabetes works

In all people, general holden.

But now that the diagnosis Has been confirmed,

Our focus has to be On treatment.

How serious is this?

It's serious.

Some cases are more severe Than others,

But this disease

Is the leading cause Of blindness in adults,

Kidney failure, amputations.

That's the scary part.

The good part Is that it's manageable.

People with diabetes can lead Full, satisfying lives

As long as they make Their health

Their number one priority. How do we do that?

I'd like to start Insulin therapy immediately.

We may be able to consider Oral medications in the future,

But right now, Your body requires insulin

To normalize your glucose.

You're both gonna need to learn How to administer the injections

And monitor your glucose levels, Claudia joy.

Mm-hmm.

We need to talk about diet,

Keeping good records.

There's a lot to learn.

It's a lot to process.

But I know what a strong woman You are.

Thank you.

You're going to be fine.

Nurse albright is a certified Diabetes educator.

She's here now.

We'll stay as long as it takes

To make sure that You both feel comfortable

With everything You have to do now.

Thank you.

I'll leave you alone For a few minutes.

You let me know When you're ready.

(door opens)

Wow.

(door closes)

Hey.

Hey.

(sobs)

Oh.
