Rhonda,
Praying. If Ben ends up in a diabetic coma, he'll have no choice
about going. I pray that it doesn't come to that, but that he sees
the sense in getting treatment sooner than later, or not at all. You
are right, there is not much you can do, besides sit by. Do you
think that your girls could help by either talking to him or
providing transportation to the hospital?
