“A couple of weeks ago, I saw a photo posted into a closed diabetes Facebook group. This photo showed an individual’s pathology report, displaying their latest A1C result. It was an amazing, amazing result. I tip my hat. People were expressing their amazement in the comments. The moderator kindly congratulated the individual, before expressing that everyone is different and that onlookers shouldn’t compare.
I thought that the moderator’s response was impeccable. More so, because it reminded me of why I am reluctant to post my A1c result online.”

Or like my dad used to say “only compare if you compare favorably”. I seldom do which makes for the other saying my grandfather taught me. “First liar don’t stand a chance”. LOL
