I haven't posted in a long time. I am shocked. I looked up to Copepod her life, work and travels seemed what I have always aspired to be (despite diabetes!). R I P x
I often visit this forum, always on the lookout for advice or reading what people have had for dinner! Copepod was 1 of the 1st to comment on my post and was always 1 to share her journey.
My thoughts are with her family and all of those affected in our D community.
I have been away from the forum for some years but wanted to say how much I respected Copepod when I was active here. She was someone I really looked up to and respected, a wonderful example of how to live life well with diabetes. She always came across as very intelligent and thoughtful, and I count it a privilege to have known her even slightly through this forum. RIP Copepod, and thank you.
I always thought I would have liked to meet her, and perhaps I should have made the effort
Perhaps, also, this will inspire all of us to get out of our various ruts for 2018, and beyond
I'm so sad and sorry to hear this awful news about Copepod. I don't post on here much but Copepod was such a familiar, knowledgeable presence on this forum and she'll be so missed. I'd like to send my condolences to her family.
I have been away from the group for a while (lots of things happening), came back today to read this. It is so sad. Condolences to family and friends. RIP
I am shocked to read this unbelievably sad news of Copepods passing ~ she gave me some good advice on occasions which was valued very much ~ she was such an active person always seemed to be involved with one thing or another ~ sometimes accompanied by her adorable pet cat I might add🙂 My heartfelt condolences thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this extremely sad and difficult time ~ may you RIP Copepod xxx
I’ve not been part of this for long but I’m so sorry to hear this. This wonderful woman was so kind to me in my first scary few weeks and I am eternally grateful for her generosity of info and knowledge and her supportive way. She had lived in New Zealand where I’m from. I’m so sorry to those of you who will be really hurting over this. RIP x Kia Kaha
