I was diagnosed in February 2010 with Type2 diabetes. I was hoping that I would be on the simpler side of it by just having to take oral medications to control it, along with the dietary changes and exercise. I was not so fortunate. I was put on insulin within 24 hours because my blood glucose was above 600! Knowing what numbers like that meant, I knew it was time for a new beginning and starting over... retraining myself to do what I should have been doing my whole life! Its been 3 1/2 years and I am still learning new things every day! As long as I have a breath left in me, I will continue to learn and grow and just become a better, healthier person!! I have Diabetes, but it does not have me!!
