Congrats!

It is not required to post everyday. Like Lorraine said on Twitter: “I like blogs that r meaningful.It’s not how many posts u have.”

Very true.

I should be the one thanking you! I’m a regular because I like what you post and what you say. You may not realize it but you have given me a certain amount of power over diabetes. I kind of look up to you to understand Tristan better. The fact that you are so honest and open about your challenges is priceless to me.

Your insights have helped me…. so THANK YOU!

I want to know if I am noraml. I was 19 years old when I was diagnosed a type 1 diabetic. My grandfather, which was diabetic, saw mw drinking a lot of liquids and going to restroom frequently and said that I had sugar diabetes and to get to the doctor. I did and they took a sample and it was 240, which at the time was borderline. Then I was put on a diet and sent to classes, I followed the diet for a week. (Now at the time I was diagnosed, my weight was about 112 5′6″ tall.) The doctor did not put me through the 3 hr or so diabetes test. Well anyway after a week I looked gostly white and my blood sugar had skyrocketed to almost 700, I was put into the hospital and put on insulin. I am now 46 years old and i was never overweight. I have been a yoyo diabetic all these years and have every problem that diabetes brings with it. My problem is finacial and heath insurance. I can’t afford either and I woryy that if I have to go to the hospital that I can’t recope. I have to depend on my mother and grandmother to help me finacially and I am at my wits end. I need help serious help!
