Diagnosis at age 7 and 3/4, August 29, 1970....
Posted on March 7, 2010 at 12:00am 1 Comment 0 Likes
The summer of 1970. I can remember being at Disneyland; drinking water, going on a ride, drinking water, going on a ride, drinking water, going to the bathroom, drinking water, going on a ride, and my sisters always yelling at me, "Come on, Becky. Hurry up!" (NO, I don't like to be called Becky anymore...As an adult I prefer Rebecca or Becka).
I was diagnosed the day before my Mother's birthday, August 29, 1970. I can remember two families from the Los Angeles area visiting us in my… Continue

So, I did something very nice for myself on my biological birthday this year!!!
Posted on November 11, 2009 at 8:57pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
It just happened to be on my biological birthday, but I did a 5k walk for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation at Dodger Stadium this year!!! I was so happy to do this on my birthday, too. My friend and her three grand-daughters joined me, as well!! I met my goal and then a little more! And then just two days later got sick (I'm sure the two are not related!!). Now I look forward to World Diabetes Day and plan to wear light blue. In fact, one of my friends gave me blue earrings and… Continue

Hey, you all!!!!
I just wanted to let all of you know about my experience at the Behavioral Diabetes Institute's Type I luncheon which was held on Saturday, October 10, in the La Jolla (San Diego) area.
Aside from the two mistakes in driving instructions (which made me much later than I pathetically, usually am!), I had a very nice time!

Hey for years I thought the 10th of August was bad but then (I don't know) 15 years later my oldest was born on that day, So now I look at that day as being the best day in the world (right along with the 20th of January my youngest's b-day)

Jessie P. said… - No need to feel too bad! I haven't been able to check up on any of my Diabetic family here lately! Your comments were still just lovely and helped me greatly. Things are doing better now, I have a job working at my mothers Day Care Center as I get over my shyness issues with people, until I can actually head in the direction I've chosen, to become a CDE one day. It will be a long road to my goal, but just like the goals of healthy Diabetes, I should be able to do it! I am well, otherwise and aside from trying not to fall into old habits of poor control. How are you?
