Happy Birthday, insulin.Life with D is hard. If you or someone you love lives with this disease, I don't need to tell you. You already know.
But today, I can feel nothing but grateful. I am determined to have a wonderful day. I am determined not to let my blood sugars upset me, whatever the number is.
I am sitting here, getting ready to change my set, and feeling rather emotional. Teary even.
It's a hard life. But it's life. Thanks to Banting and Best, I am alive. I can be annoyed at these stupid highs the last few days because I am alive.
I am alive.
Happy Birthday, insulin.
What a great perspective!
ReplyDeleteI assume people have asked you like they've asked me if it's difficult dealing with being diabetic. Sure it is, but it's better than the alternative!
We are alive & living our lives & we owe Drs. Banting & Best a world of thanks!
