Calling all St. Louis area PWD's!

I need my friends to help me out on this one. This would be a perfect opportunity for all the St. Louis area diabetics or PWD to get involved personally in advocacy and diabetes awareness. Thanks to Kaycee Connell, the St. Louis diabetes Examiner, I found out about this free program. It just so happens that my endo, Dr. Garry Tobin, also promoted this program to me in May when I went for my twice a year check up. What Eric and Garry want to do is create a community of PWD's who will volunteer… Continue

+ Walter Proehl

Hi all: Just letting you know that my dear father-in-law, Walter Proehl, lost his fight with diabetes this afternoon (Monday). He had another major cardiac arrest Sunday evening, and his body just couldn't hold out any longer. I know many of you prayed for him and prayed with me while we went through this long 90 day journey to find out if he could recover from 30 years of poorly managed T2 diabetes. We know now that we have another fellow diabetic up in Heaven on our side. Here are the arr… Continue

Prayers for Wally Needed:

I just posted this on my blog. An update I've sent to friends: I'm hoping to download a song that he and Yvonne first danced to - in order to stimulate something - we know he's listening and looking. Then I'm taking the kids up there after Joe gets home from Jack's soccer game. Joe's mom, Yvonne, and his sisters, Mary and Terri, are there at the hospital now. We take turns and shifts. Yvonne is anxious, and we're loo… Continue

Paying for Carb Overload Last Night

So, because of the snow day, I ordered pizza. Now, I can't have - really AT ALL - my favorite Chicago-style thick crust pizza that I love so dearly. So instead, I order one of our local pizzerias, one of our favorites, Cecil Whittaker's. It's very thin crust, and usually, it doesn't affect my BS in the way I'll pay for it later. So after I've been on the Byetta, I'm thinking, wow - I feel good today, I can eat some more pizza (more than my allotted two pieces), and I do. Combined with the salad… Continue

I was a bad girl today.....

So....my youngest wanted to go see the Action and Abstraction exhibit at the St. Louis Art Museum today before it closed. And so after our Sunday morning faith ritual of attending mass at St. Cronan and then making sandwiches for Karen House, I treated the whole family to lunch at the Boathouse and viewing the exhibit at the museum (I just went ahead and renewed my membership, so it was an expensive day). First of all, I could have had a burger or something else full of carbs at the Boathouse r… Continue
