to my eyes......

some know..most don't,that i just found out i have diabetes (in addition to my SA....grrrr) (brain-scan to follow)......i'm about three weeks in on my meds and about 6 days using the "prick" thing......

my youngest son (18) is a part of my life now,since he left his mother last january (he's said one word to her since then)...

he's been screaming at me about my readings,diet,etc....i've been taking the readings at 10am,7pm,and 11pm.....i have to call him and tell him the result.

my reading at 7pm tonight was 99...first double digit i've had (though i still feel like shit)....i couldn't reach him by phone,so i text messaged him to tell him......he replied with the following....

"good shit,dad,i'm proud of you ....i'll call you later"

it's not much,and i'm sorry if i bored you...but tears welled in my eyes...he actually cares about me...


btw...i haven't met with my doc yet (this thursday)..so any tips you can give me regarding diet,etc will be appreciated
