Dear Rebecca and Burns,
I have a relative who has diabetes and must take insulin shots after every meal. He makes quite a production of it, testing blood sugar level, preparing the injection and injecting himself at the table -- all in front of family members and friends and in restaurants. I can handle it, but several others cannot. The sight of blood and injections ruins the enjoyment of the meals for those with queasy stomachs. This person is extremely sensitive, and his feelings would be crushed if he knew he was offending people.
How would you handle this?
