My parents are missionaries and we were in Indonesia when i was diagnosed with diabetes. Indonesia is a pile of islands just north of Australia). This is my twin AJ and me running to get good seats on the airline that we usually encountered cockroaches!
I was 11 years old and my mom looked up my symptoms in a book called "Where there is no Doctor". We were out in the jungle about 15 miles (45 min) away from any doctor. Not too bad of a…

Robyn said… - OOOOO my little Jane!! Love the new profile picture of you and your Tarzan :) Well, honey I have had blood clots/hemorrhages for many months now...having very intense Laser Surgeries to zap the little clots in the back of my eye. Very painful procedures, but...saving my eyesight. My right eye is the worse. I have had these clots...spidery veins clots above my pupil area...well, now they are breaking up and it is right in my vision and watery blurry haze as well. Doc says it will clear...just taking too long. I will be okay. Hard to see clearly sometimes. How are you??? Thanks for the beautiful flower picture. You are a doll!! Love ya

Marps said… - Yay on getting married! And the house! The puppy will be a nice addition. We got one last summer and he is a handful, but keeps us occupied. Good practice for kids... except I'm hoping to not want to beat my kids. haha. Just kidding. I only sometimes want to beat my dog.

- Hey Heather! I check in here once in a while. More often now because I'm almost 5 months pregnant, so using this site as a place to help me stay on track with the D. My A1c is 6.5! Ugh, I've worked so hard these past two years on it, so it'd better stay there! What have you been up to? I got married last summer to my best friend, we are buying a house and having a baby. So, I know what you mean when you say this last year has been busy! Hope it's all good! :)
