I'm covering her too. I have her phone number from when she left a singing message on my recorder about the cicadas! I plan to call her as the day progresses. Will share more information later in the day.

I just talked by phone to chatty. Imagine that! I told her I would share what's going on. The doctors thought she may have had a mild stroke, but as it turns out she is having complications with her Diabetes. Her blood sugar was high and she was having some other complications too. She now has a stronger medication which will bring her blood suagr down quickly. Her biggest problem is double-vision. What a yucky feling. Please pray for that to subside. As the blood sugar drops, her vision should return. Her spirits are great and she appreicates all the thoughts and prayers being offered in her name.

You're such a good mom Dots! If you talk to her again tell her we all send our love. On occasion I go to Las Vegas, I'd love to stop and meet her the next time I go.

Chatty, so happy to see you back!! Looking forward to meeting you in August even if it is for a brief time. We will be there for 4 days, and will be as busy as long as the team wins. When we lose, we have the rest of the time to do our own thing.

Chatty: there's no need for sawdust... We'll continue praying for you and your health... and that you make the right choices when it comes to eating . It's not easy for me to try to diet around here! I'm sure it's not easy for you! Take it one day at a time. "See" you around!

Chatty~
I think the rise after sleeping is just because of course, you're sedentary when sleeping. I wonder if you did some exercise before going to bed, like walking, if that would keep it stabilized. I had gestational diabetes with my last child eleven years ago and I get tested periodically but haven't had it reoccur. But every once in a while I can eat something either too fatty or sweet and my eyes are not all together for a good part of the next day. And I've discussed it with my optometrist and he says there's nothing there and he's never heard of that. But I'm pretty in tune with what's normal for me and when I started figuring out why caused the blurriness, I quit eating ice cream at night, or sunflower seeds or soda...and a few other things.
You just hang in there and you'll find what the right balance is for you.
Kate

chatty and kate, I've heard my husband refer to the rise in blood sugar during the night. There's even a name for it. I'll ask him and let you know more. Kate, Ross is an optometrist so I'll ask him about the eye thing too. Because he's a Type I Diabetic, an eye doctor and has lots of patients with Diabetes, he's a wiz with some of this stuff. I'll get back to you!

Chatty, my husband has Type I diabetis and it seems to me that it's a tough thing to control. He takes a different insulin at night to combat the sugar rise but then his blood sugar often drops too low at night and he has to eat something to raise it back up.
He, unfortunately, doesn't try to control his eating but figures he can balance whatever he eats with the insulin. Maybe that's okay but it doesn't make sense to me.
I'm just playing catch up on the postings and was sorry to hear that you're ill. I hope you're getting better every day.

Hi Chatty,
Just wanted to put my 'two-cents' worth in and let you know that I'm keeping you in my prayers and hoping you're well soon. Sometimes an illness goes on for awhile; but don't give up. Wellness often takes time, effort, medication and a Dr's expertise.
Just know that we 'boomer' women care and want the best for you!
Your Diet Buddy,

Chatty, After I came out of the hospital it was hard for me to get the blood sugars down. I tried to behave and do what I had been told. The doctor later told me part of the high blood sugar was because of the trauma of being in the hospital. Hang in there and keep doing what your supposed to. They will come down. I know this is frustrating but like Toni said "it does take time" Maggie
