Sooo, are you convinced that diabetes is a blessing? Did you read testimony #1?  What do you think?  I am a diabetic individual because I was selected as very exceptional out of ten other brothers and sisters.  I say this because out of the ten without diabetes, six of them are alcoholics.

What I will be describing to you is some of the temptations that I had growing up in my teens and earlier twenties.  I will remind you of who knows you best and last of all who is really in control.

When I was around sixteen years of age I was still taking four shots a day to control this disease.  I was into dating and drinking with my friends.  By the way, I love the taste of Scotch Whiskey and if not for my sub consciousness reminding me about my sugar diabetes, I would have continued to drink more than I did.  I did end up in the emergency room with a blood sugar of 900 after I went out dancing and drinking.  I remember the emergency room doctor looking at me and saying he could not believe that I was still awake and conscious. He told me I should have gone into a diabetic comma. Again, diabetes is a blessing in disguise in my case. When I was in my twenties I started college and obtained my Associates, then my Bachelors, then my Master, then my doctorate, then another Master and another Bachelor degree  Am I crazy?  You ask. I love to learn, especially about myself.  What makes me tick?  What is my purpose?  Do you know the answers to these same questions or are you too busy with life?

I love to learn and who knows you best but you.  When you go to your doctor and he/she suggests you do something different with your diabetes always question what they suggests. I remember seeing one doctor for better control of my sugar diabetes.  He told me to give myself six shots a day.  I did that for one week but I was having too many low blood sugars.  I went in to see him for my appointment and told him I could not do want he suggested because I was having too many low blood sugars.  He said if you do not want to follow my directions then find someone else to help you.  Guess what?  I did.  After all, it is your body and your life and you are in control. 

I use to be a very quiet and insecure person but my diabetes changed all that.  Stay tuned for the next version of living with diabetes.
