Life is fascinating to me. I truly am blown away by it. I am amazed with this world, the people in it and everything about it. Tonight I was watching a show that was very real. The show was called "Intervention". I don't normally get too caught up in television. I don't find much on TV that I can learn from or that I find really enjoyable. I like seeing things that are as real as possible. I like learning from and being around different types of people and gaining knowledge from real experiences.

You learn to appreciate the "realness" in what and who is around you. (READ MORE)

Diabetes has had us back on our heels and off-balance since school started. Charlie has had very high blood sugars. In turn, we're doing a lot of guessing. Guessing is not a great strategy when dealing with a major disease. Such is life with diabetes.


It is during these times that diabetes likes to send a message. It likes to bring you down to size and remind you that you're not in control. Just as we were about to make changes to deal with the constant highs, the unexpected sound of panic lifts me from my chair.


"Carey! Juice box now!!! He's very low!!!"


I pop from my chair like a firefighter responding to an alarm and grab two juice boxes. I can hear Susanne's voice growing louder as I make my way upstairs.


"CHARLIE! CHARLIE! I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP!"


"CHARLIE!"
