    I’m sitting in a syrup pool (365). Well, and I had problems with my ISP this
    a.m. Finally called technical support and he had me go through a bunch of
    stuff. I’m connected now.

    Hi Jan,
    Why are you soooo sweet??? Are you under more stress than usual? Maybe
    because you are missing Marius! Where the heck is he?
    I just got back from the doctor and I am doing so well. My blood pressure is
    138/68. I usually am 190/95 and sometimes higher. So the new medicine is
    doing it’s job. I do not have to go back to the doctor until the first week
    of Dec. and I will have blood work prior to seeing her. My weight is down to
    215 from 248 in Aug. She is real happy about my progress and said that if my

    HGBA1C is good she will take me off the remaining pill I am on for the
    Diabetes!! I only have to test my sugar once a day now. I don’t know if I
    will stick to that. I need to know how the numbers are. I go to the
    cardiologist on Fri. and I hope all is ok there. I am afraid of that visit. I
    don’t want to go for any further tests! I am a chicken.
    I wonder how Iris is. There hasn’t been a post from her in a few days and
    that is unusual. I hope she is feeling fine and not down either.
    Take Care,
    Christine

    I had to change my pump needle — but went to a banquet last night and
    didn’t take enough insulin bolus to cover that dutch apple pie 8^
    Took a shot of 4u Humalog and a nap about 9:00 a.m. When felt well enough,
    got in the shower and changed that stuff. Am under 200 (I think) right now.
    Feeling better. I contacted Marius to see when he’s coming back. Either
    he’s upset with us for not talking to him at his weird hours time or he’s
    had another heart quake. He’s not spittin’ or anything.

    Yes I did have a good trip. I had to go to Houston TX and boy I hate to
    drive over there. That is so stressful.. But for some reason the traffic
    was very lite. I am glad for that. However there is no place like home. I
    am glad to be home. Hugs Shelia :O)

    Don’t know about Iris; don’t know if Connie is back yet.

    Jan when is the last time you have heard from Marius? I have not been on for
    a few days. I talked to him before the weekend, I think? I answered a email
    to Iris this week about her question of the week. I don’t know about Connie.
    I hope Marius is ok. maybe he has some time off. How are you? I hear your
    bgs are up? Hugs Shelia

    I believe last Friday and he was moanin’ that no one wanted to talk to him.
    I never saw a *BYE* or a TTYL with his name involved. I tried to contact him
    but no response. That’s not like him. Hope he hasn’t had a *predictable*
    episode.

    I’m still here. I have been writing a couple of stories in response to
    challenges issued on my ‘Due South’ writers’ lists and that’s been taking
    up some time. And I’ve been a bit depressed, too. There’s a few idiots,
    led by my ex-girlfriend, who have been putting me down on the Usenet
    newsgroups I subscribe to, saying I don’t have a disability, I shouldn’t
    be receiving money to help me manage my diabetes, and that I’m a
    pathological liar for claiming to have a disability. I have been resorting
    to chocolate to make my self feel better…which has a not so good effect
    on the blood sugar.
    Iris,
    Please don’t let some bitter people upset you enough to put your health in
    jeopardy.

    Only you know if you are truly disabled and you must live with yourself. I
    also don’t believe you would be recieving benefits if there wasn’t enough
    evidence to support your claim. Ok end of lecture. This is meant to cheer
    you and bolster your courage. I do hope that is how you take it! Tell us
    about these stories. Are they based on the TV series “DUE SOUTH”
    “DUE NORTH”?
    Keep your chin up and the chocolate out of your mouth! LOL!

    Iris, You should not even read that trash if it is going to upset you.
    No One knows what a disablity is unless they walk in your shoes. No one
    knows how it feels to have that disability either until they walk in your
    shoes. No one can feel what you feel until they walk in your shoes. The
    only way they can do this is to have the disability and then comment. I
    get upset when people say that they will put a blind fold on and see how
    it feels to be blind…that is a joke because they KNOW they can take it
    off so they don’t have to live this way everyday and try and meet the
    challenges that lay ahead of them each day. I wake to facing
    difficulties just to get up and ready for work. It takes me longer to
    clean up, get dressed (find clothes that match) and then go to work via
    public transportation that can pick u you up 2 hours before you want to
    be there or get you there 2 hours late and if you are 5 minutes late you
    get left…then you are suppose to eat on time and not get your stress
    level up. I have learned or tried to learn that you have to let the

    little things roll off your back and keep the stress for the BIG things
    in life that might make the difference of life or death the rest just
    does not matter. I know that I am loved and people out there do care
    about me and that they are my true friends and family members and I do
    not have to try and be strong for anyone else but myself. If I am happy
    the rest of the world is happy. I have to admit getting things ready for
    the kid party on Friday has been very hectic but I will make it otherwise
    visit me at Charter when I am in that lovely white special coat. It will
    not be because I have a disablilty it will because the KIDS drove me to
    the nut house and no parent or coworker support. Get my drift….?????
    take a little chocolate…go into the shower have your private pity party
    (that we all need at times) come out and put your chin up and your best
    wrist forward and go for it…You are GOOD…remember who you are…

    Well, now I am worried about him. I can’t believe he just would not answer
    because even when he mumbled he has so much humor that I could not tell he
    would be mad. I am wondering if he got sick maybe. I wish there was a way
    to check on him. Do you have a address of any kind? I know he was talking
    about all the unstableness around him. Or maybe his job cut him off the
    net?. Let me know if you can think if something we can do to check on him
    and his family. Hugs Shelia :O)

    Iris, I totally agree with Christine. You have to move on when you come
    across people like that. Especially if they are not diabetics and have no
    clue to the effects of the disease. I am so proud of you for your
    achievements here lately and I say to you! CHEERS TO IRIS! SHE HAS HAD
    SO MUCH COURAGE AND WE ARE PROUD OF HER!! Hugs Shelia :O)
