Hi everyone,


I am going to missing in action today. My husband, as many of you know, is also a type 2 diabetic. He is quite ill right now and in the hospital. He has been sick since Monday but yesterday he couldn't keep his blood sugar up and couldn't seem to absorb sugars from his stomach. When I finally got him to the emergency room last night his blood sugar was 37 and he seemed like he was having a stroke. But after some intravenous glucose he was absolutely normal. But soon his blood sugar dropped  back down to 41. No one knows at the moment what is causing this.


So I will not be around as much as usual.

Hi Mary-Frances,


I will say a prayer for your husband and you tonight my friend. A sneaky baffling disease.

Thank you all for your kind words of support and encouragement. I have posted a longer message about his experience but I wanted all of you to know how special you were to me.


A gentle hug to everyone,
