Doris, it seems you don't suffer fools gladly or easily. I SO get that. It's been a while but it's kind of nice to be back. I did have lunch with Manny and Emily today. Very kind and extremely pleasant folk to break bread with. It was a blast for me.

Thanks, Doris!

Hey, Doris! Thanks so much. I don't know why I was featured. It's not like I've done anything noteworthy. I'm flattered but I'm not sure I deserve any particular recognition. How've you been, Girlfriend?

Hey Doris!!!, wow I have been away for a long time. My page changed, my brooklyn bridge and irish castle pics are gone, they kicked me out of the "welcome committee" holy cow! HA, you think they got mad at me? awww so sorry to hear about your shoulder, is that what the physical therapy is about? What's hubby in for? HAPPY MOTHERS DAY. yes Lisa is doing okay, but in Jersey it's spring bloom time and we are all kinda sick with allergies. Poor Jimmy has it the worst, with allergies and asthma. I feel so bad for him when his nose is running and he can't breathe. gd allergies... here's a picture I took of him for his Mother's day card to Lisa:

and work's a drag but it's payin the bills, they fire half the guys and the other half gets to do everything. running down to Virginia a lot - they got me starting up an insulin factory of all things. thanks for the note doris I miss you!!!!!

Good afternoon,Doris. Thanks for your birthday greeting. I got so many cards and emails. I do not honest feel 85. Did a lot of eating birthday cake was good but BG 118 not nad. We had a heavy dowbpour for an hour yesterday and ithas rained most of the day. My garden is loving it. Russ is walking more without the walker. How are you and Ken doing. PT will soon be over. Russ just has one more thing that growth on his adrenal glad. He sees the doctor 5.22 if he does need an operation no cutting. They do it a new way. I hope all is well there. Take good care both of you. HUGS,Reed

Thank you very much and i'm excited to read this forum and meet more people who are going through similar situations as I am! :)

Thanks for the warm welcome Doris!!!!

Hi Doris, yes I'm very new to all this. I'll be exploring the site more in the near future.
Thanks for your concern!

I am. And I am making sure the doctors are too. I have been here with MaMissy every day and night, I have not been to school since she has been in.

Good Morning,Doris. Thank you for your birthday greeting. I don;t feel 85. A few aches and pains. I am impressed with all the emails I had from students way back to 1953, One sent me a floral arrangement of orchids. STILL no rain. BG 104. I hope you and Ken doing well. Take good care. HUGS,Reed

Thanks Doris for the welcome. You are so lucky to have such a wonderful family. I was 12 when diagnosed and back in the early 80's I was told it was very risky for me to have a child. Sure wish now I hadn't listened to them. Regret that immensely. Enjoy your grandchildren. They are so precious.

Fear Doris, HAPPY MOTHERS DAY. You celebrating at home or at your gmothers? I hope yoy have a great day. Pleased,too,you are feeling better. It is getting dark here. I hope it means rain. I was going out to eat for my birthday but Russ wants to wait until he gets off the walker. So we will go next Saturday. Even with all the STRESS my BG readings have been good. Has Brit had her baby yet? I\If so,boy or girl. How is the new car running? When does Ken go to see about his blockage. Tom is staying until Wed. We are going in a few to Home Deport to pick up a few thins. Hope you have a wonderful day. My best to KEN. HUGS,Reed

Happy Mother's Day Doris, hope you're having a good time with the fam.

Happy Mother's Day Doris! Yep, Ive read your blog this morning (my morning...its night time here) Pretty cool you have a new computer! If you need to ask anything about it...Id be happy to help :) That's pretty sweet of your hubby.

We celebrated Mom's day today having lunch with my Mom ...Chinese food...yum! I actually enjoyed it with a bit of caution LOL I have been feeling a bit depressed for the past few days since I had my A1C results...and it was pretty horrible for me. My A1C jumped up from 6.1 3 months ago to 7.2! I felt so bad...its like I got defeated again...sigh. Oh well... back to the drawing board of adjustments. I feel better today since I know I can do better next time...right ha! LOL

Doris- I had a good laugh at your expense. I got a glucagon kit when I was first DX. When it expired, I never got another one. Never needed it. I have been as low as 20 several times, and still talking. BTW, Happy Mother's Day. Cat

doris, that is some wild ride you had there. funny, I've never had a glucagon kit. guess I;m lucky. I think they're coming out with premixed micro-dosing glucagan. I may ask my endo about it, I'm going in a couple of weeks.
