Mrs. O - Elderly, loves sweets, dislikes cooking

• Retired
• Sedentary lifestyle
• Excessive urination and thirst
• Eats at home and alone

Mrs. O is 75 years old and retired from her job as schoolteacher. She has few outside contacts, except for a few friends who play bridge together every week. Mrs. O has a sweet tooth and regularly consumes cola and candy. Meals are ready-to-eat to avoid the hassle of cooking. Sometimes she skips a meal altogether. Poor circulation, bouts of thirst and excessive urination have prompted her doctor to urge efforts at better control of her high glucose levels.
