Hi Three Timer, it seems to me that you already know what is best for you and have made up your mind pretty much. From what I read in your posts, your relationship sounds a bit unhealthy (to me at least). There are obviously more issues than just the gambling.
Cgs scheme and lie and try to manipulate, anything to keep the addiction alive. Recovery is something the addict has to work on himself, nobody can really help, just support the effort. It takes dedication and hard work on his part, the addiction is his, not yours.
I am also a type 1 diabetic, have been for 38 years and I have to agree with you, the disease is brutal. Stress is a big factor in keeping your BS stable and living with a cg can really aggravate the problems. Just like you, I have been tempted to give up many, many times. What kept me going was that my daughter and my pets needed me. When you are battling serious health problems, being in a relationship with an addict can be harder than it is for a healthy person. JMHO of course. Nobody can tell you what to do, that is for you to decide. Listen to your gut and try to do what is best for you and your son. I wish you the best of luck in anything you do!!
