One Groovy Thing: #Dblogweek 24-Hour Interval 2

Day two of Diabetes Blog Week is all close 1 corking matter you lot produce regarding your diabetes life. 

I considered writing close how spot on I am when it comes to oculus balling cupcake circumference to its carb count equivalent, or how I tin orbit the axe utter to a incorrect break regarding diabetes. 

But I went amongst the next because at that topographic point was a fourth dimension inwards my diabetes youth that  I wasn't thus corking at it - And damn if I haven't come upward a long means baby! 

OK, this is every bit basic every bit life amongst diabetes gets, but 1 of the things I’m actually adept at re: living my diabetes life is testing my blood sugar, both on the downward depression too the inwards your confront versions of blood saccharide testing. 

Seriously, I exam similar woman raise fuck*r  and I don’t attention where I am or who I’m with.

I’ve tested my blood saccharide on the downward depression inwards operate meetings, outset appointment dinners, funerals too during plays too the people I was amongst were none the wiser for it.

And on the flip side, I’ve literally busted out my meter at the dinner table, at operate too on the beach too didn’t attention who was around.

I exam too I exam a lot. I struggle for my insurance fellowship to comprehend my 10 to 12 exam strips a solar daytime because it’s my life too my life depends on me testing. 

I don’t brand excuses for having to exam - EVER. I merely produce it. And if people accept questions they tin orbit the axe inquire -and they produce - And I’m OK amongst that, too response them conduct too amongst a smile.  

Here’s the thing: Testing my blood saccharide gives me comfort  (It's similar my safety blanket,) too testing my blood saccharide provides me amongst a map when I’m feeling lost regarding my diabetes. 

And I endeavour REALLY difficult to non to larn mad at the break on the screen. 

Instead, I persuasion it every bit my Diabetes GPS, my life’s garmin thus to speak - Telling me where I am too which direction I remove to become in.  

If truth move told, I wasn’t e'er such a testing fiend. In college I could accept done much amend amongst my testing. I didn’t similar to exam - Quite frankly, I SUCKED AT TESTING. 

I didn’t experience the remove - I idea it was stupid too viewed it every bit an anchor to a greater extent than or less my neck. But I was incorrect too I wised up.   And I reckon myself a rattling lucky duck, indeed.

I can’t modify what I did or didn’t produce then, I tin orbit the axe entirely modify my future. 

And inwards gild to accept a corking hereafter too a pretty fantastical present, I accept to test. 

OF cast different others that nosotros know too love, I 'm non thus corking close changing my lancet. 

And  thanks to testing, I’ll never move a mitt model - But later viewing this video, I’m certain you'll empathize why I'm to a greater extent than than OK amongst that!
