Dealing with Life

Posted on November 12, 2008 at 11:51pm 0 Comments

Why is it that life with diabetes seems to be one problem after another? Some days are so good and others just aren't...I remember a time when I could just eat what I wanted to do what I wanted without having to think about having enough supplies with me, or if I will run out of insulin while driving down the road...Life just seemed so much easier "before" diabetes....I wish more people were educated in diabetes and what we have to do just to stay "normal"....Okay done venting.....Let's hope… Continue

Thank you Dawn. Having Diabetes is really turning my life upside down. I am having a very difficult time coping. I hate the needles 8 times a day, the bruising on my arms and legs, the not eating like I always did.This morning for no reason my BG dropped to 50 and without my BF here I worry I could have gone into a coma or something. Getting this disease was like getting shot in the head. I cant handle such changes in my life. I hate this life.

Dawn,
I wanted to let you know that my website, www.watchandalert.com is officially up now for you to view all the products. Everything on the site I officially have in stock. I am looking into getting a few more styles. If you have any feedback, let me know. Thanks Jill

Dawn, Happy Thanksgiving. I have the same problem with my wrist, I have a huge wrist bone, thats why I prefer the adjustable band. Right now I only have one metal women's style. I am ordering more soon. See below, if you have something more suited for you in mind, describe it or send me a picture of a watch you like. I can see what I can do for you.

Hi Dawn, Thank you for the inquiry. I can send you a couple of samples. My website should be up within a week. I am just wroking out a few things before it launches. Before I send you a picture of anything, what type of watch do you like to wear? Do you like leather, silver, or cloth band? I'd love it if you decided one of my watches work for you!
