Live-abetes

My rotation partner is extremely witty and showed it off today. For anonymity's sake, we will call her Ally. First, we started saying "well if Ally ran the hospital...". An example of this was when she found a discrepancy in the meds officially administered  and what was in the care notes. So she said, "well if I ran the hospital, the forgotten charges would come out of the nurses paychecks!" We kinda kept this up all day making up random ways to make the hospital "better" haha.

Then at some point, we started discussing diabetes. She mentioned how "die"abetes is just depressing and that she wanted to rename it "live"abetes. haha, so witty! Live-abetes is just more positive about the situation.  This reminds me of how people don't like being called handicap, but rather handi-capable. Whatever floats their boat. I don't care if you have diabetes or liveabetes, just get that blood glucose under control!
