I am oh so sweet, just call me the Insulin Junkie!

Well, here we go again. For all my medical friends who stay so interested in me....Hemoglobin A1C 15.3. Shouldn't I be dead or something? It is worse than ever. When I feel my best, my sugar is worst?? Neuropathy bad,bad,bad. Nots so much hands as the feet. Pump is giving me about 180-220 units of Humalog a day. Cutting sugar out all together. Only tried this once, but it did work. (Remember sugar of 16 and falling in shower pregnant??) So either I am going to be too high or too low. They saw low is better. I am being optimistic. I have to do this.



My girls are now 11 years old. I cannot believe it. I love being a Mother. It is never easy, but always breathtaking. I never dreamed my tiny, tiny, babies would be bigger than me. They are so very beautiful and intelligent. I am so blessed. There is so many things that stick in my mind about that special day, I could list them forever. 1.Myron ran out of gas on the way to the hospital. (My Daddy did the same with me except my Mommy was with him and Grandaddy came and got her and left my Daddy) 2.My husband of color was white by the time the CRNA got my epidural placed. The best summary my dearest friend Jackie O gave me in a special message for my girls. She told them all the wonderful things about my pregnancy and working for my OB doctor, and the many pictures posted in my office of ultrasounds, everyone around was delighted. She told them what a blessing they were to everyone and how many prayers were said for them and me. It truly was the best day of my life and I cry when I think of how special it was. My boss laid her hands on my belly and said the most beautiful prayer in the world...Shayla had been sluggish all day and Sloan had not moved at all, but as she prayed I could feel them both kicking at the same time. Sorry, the best part was she told them to Thank me for having them and giving them life! I thank everyone for that day and times. I mainly Thank God for the Doctors and Nurses that I later came to work so closely with and I admire them one and all.



School is going good. We are having a Spa Sleepover for the Birthday and all their friends are coming over tomorrow night. I am as excited as they are. On Sunday we are having a cookout for the girls, Nini, and Nana. Wish me luck!
