Thanks!
My dad just saw his doctor—it turns out he’s dealing with diabetes now.
He's started insulin, so I was wondering if he can still enjoy all kinds of fruit, like watermelon, pineapple, or kiwi...?
I guess it would be helpful to know which ones are okay to have more often, and maybe which ones he should probably limit.

Hi there. My dad hasn't been feeling quite like himself lately—he’s lost about 22 pounds, and he's dealing with these sudden dizzy spells where his vision just goes dark. He’s drinking water constantly, too, though he mentions his mouth feels completely dry... almost like his saliva has thickened into something like cheese.

He hasn't made it to a doctor yet, mostly because he’s always working and can't seem to find the time—plus, he's been under an incredible amount of stress recently.

Does anyone have any insight into what might be going on here?
