Very thoughtful: You are a good friend indeed to ask this question. You can help by encouraging a healthy lifestyle and encouraging your friend to keep doctors appointments, stay on required medications, and to check blood sugars as required. Participating in the things that your friend needs to do will greatly help, like getting regular exercise together and making good food choices and avoiding junk food.
