Part of Me
Diabetes
Its a part of me.
Always there,
24/7
It trys to control me,
Weaken me,
Depress me.
But i dont let it.
I fight back!
If it makes me high,
I get up and dance.
If it makes me low,
I lay and think about
How much my sister must love me.
To run to and fro to get me carbs.
And when my blood sugar is just right,
I know i will be to.
If a three year old can do it,
So Can I!

Women are strong
Biwako, wife of the 3rd hokage Naruto- This much pain would kill a man but women are strong!!
My favorite quote from the entire series. Why? Because I've seen the women in my life be thrown a lot more stress and B.S. and get the worst of it. As i grew up i Found that half the women put themselves into that situation

Worse
"It could be worse"
I know
I know
Low, hungry, alone
It could have killed me.
Mom was there,
sitting beside me.
Watching me try,
learning along with me.
A new "normal"
Finally home again,
My friends rush to my side,
speaking only words of comfort.
But you...
When I told you
The first thing you said was,
"It could be worse"
And as true as those words were,
They were the last words i wanted to hear.

Is it possible to laugh and cry at the same time?
After reading this post on Six Until Me's blog i was both laughing and crying a little. http://sixuntilme.com/blog2/2012/04/so_much_bigger.html#comments
Reading it a second time brings tears to my eyes still, but this time only a smile. I couldn't imagine being diabetic at that age. I was 17 almost 18 when diagnosed. I learned quickly what was happening with me and what i should do.(it help when they leave that text book, the pink panther book, alone with two avid readers. The only big problem we had was who got to read the book first.
At that age I had never heard of diabetes, never meet anyone with it, never knew such a thing could exist. Now i know how many how to deal with it at that age or earlier. My biggest inspiration is Elise, the heroine of Death of a Pancreas. After i was diagnosed i spent hours reading her mothers blog trying for a glimpse into what i may have to deal with. Elise was celebrating her first birthday when her mom was told she needed to go to the hospital.
May their days be filled with blessings...
