According to the vet this little jerk has entered diabetic remission - and really, it’s all thanks to you guys!

Hi all! Initially I was a lurker on this sub, and I picked up all of your recommendations on food, treats, and glucose monitoring. You inspired me to get a Glucose Monitor (my vet did not recommend one) and found out through diet, his glucose was down on his own. I panicked about dosing again, as my vet advised to continue it, and you guys flooded me with tons of guidelines and resources. I continued to glucose monitor, and we are now 16 days insulin free with glucose readings around 90! Just wanted to say my ornery son is back to biting me for attention and harassing me, and has even started to recover from his limp. Thank you guys so much for giving him back to me ❤️We had a short diabetes journey that gave me a few gray hairs, and I’m so grateful for how helpful this sub has been.

Wanted one of these forever!

Was so hard to find one of these in a place where there's winters, but so glad I finally did.

[Spoilers PUBLISHED] How much did Sybell Spicer cooperate with Tywin Lannister?

This might be super obvious to everyone who doesn’t have ADHD, but is it commonly thought that Sybell helped Tywin far more than just giving Jeyne some herbal birth control?

I’m rereading A Storm of Swords, where we have not went back to Riverrun post red wedding, and we haven’t met Sybell Spicer, but Tommen is signing some paperwork and this came up:

“Ser Kevan presented another sheaf of parchments to the king. Tommen dipped and signed. “This is a decree of legitimacy for a natural son of Lord Roose Bolton of the Dreadfort. And this names Lord Bolton your Warden of the North.” Tommen dipped, signed, dipped, signed. “This grants Ser Rolph Spicer title to the castle Castamere and raises him to the rank of lord.” Tommen scrawled his name.”

Castamere is a pretty hefty reward for just administering some moon tea.

Is it possible that while Robb was wounded in the Crag, hopped up on Milk of the Poppy, that Sybell started communicating with Tywin immediately and orchestrated Jeyne sort of seducing Robb? I don’t believe Jeyne is in on it, but maybe Sybell encouraged Jeyne to give him a physical comfort knowing his honor would compel him to marry her? In the books, as far as I recall, neither Sybell nor Tywin ever mention that their plot extended further.

Because Jeyne is so different from Talisa background in the show, I don’t see it often discussed but I find it way more interesting than compelling, so I wanted to see how accepted/refuted the depth of the Spicer/Lannister alliance is.
