"HUGS" EMILY So sorry I know how u feel there. Been there done that soo sorry.

I got something funny that hapened to me last week maybe this will make u laugh.........I got up on the morning we started our 9 hour trip to Dallas with a 411 bs sooo I try & be smart and do all the right things with the bolus and all right???? We get 2 hours into our trip and I'm at I think it was 45 so I tell my husband to pull off at the next exit so's I can eat........... I still don't go very high after eating a cheeseburgeer and fries along with a "real" coke ater all that I was only 94 (I really don't like it when I'm below 100 I fall too fast and no I didn't bolus for those things) after we FINALLY got to Dallas and in my b-i-l's house I'm still under 50 so I try to snick off and eat a little of this and a little of that (mostly cookies) to get my bs's up. In the middle of a conversation I speak out (making NO sense at all) my husband knows when I do this that I'm low and my b-i-l's girlfriend looks at me and asks if I'm ok and that I'm white as a sheet and look cold (it was like 85 in the house at that time) Now still trying to be cool I say I'm fine and ask my husband if what I just said made no sence. He says "Ugh yes are u low???" Talking about scaring 2 ppl to death yep that was me then! LOL! my hubby just goes on in his usual way and gets me some OJ with sugar in it (YUCK) and after that episode I was ok. U really shoulkd have seen my b-i-l and his g-friends faces during all this! I dang near would up in a Dallas hospital!!! LOL! Now that would have topped off our vacation! LOL!

Big **HUGS** and lots of positive vibes coming your way, Emily! Hang in there, this too shall pass and life will be good again. :)

I have to admit that part of your post made me chuckle...because I've had the same thought during rough spurts with my diabetes that I just wish I could check myself into a residential facility because I can't take it anymore and let someone else figure it out for me because it's too dang hard... but the storm always passes and yours will too. Only another PWD could understand.

Thank you sooooooo much! I needed some love you you came through and I REALLY appreciate it. Indeed, it's a wonderful thing to be heard by folks who get it :)

Emily, If I could get to California I would give you a million hugs. But since I can't get there (I actually think I'm still wanted for something in CA...lol) I guess this will have to do...

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGSSSSSSSSSS!

Get better soon girl.

Adding my hugs & sending a big steaming bowl of chicken soup along with healing energy.

The diabetes gremlins have a field day when we're sick. Not fair, so not fair! Hey, gremlins, back off; Emily has enough to do without your tricks.

Let me know if you find an ashram for fed up & disgusted diabetics.

Hope Thurs is a far better day.
