Removing the Blame
Blogabetes
The magazine I work for is not for health-care professionals. It’s not even close to being something read by health-care professionals. Yet the audience deals with health-care and insurance issues on a regular basis. So for me to read and edit a story

Zero Choice
The Butter Compartment
One of my diabetes pet peeves has always been the lack of beverage choices when I go out to eat. There’s always water, of course, but that’s always my last choice. Depending on where you go, there might be unsweetened iced tea. If you want a hot bevera

Health and Girl Stuff
Diabetes Mine
Maybe that isn’t the most politically correct title for this post; I should grow up and say “women’s issues,” right? Naw. Just like any formerly repressed group, we get to refer to ourselves any way we want. And a girl might just change her mind, you know

Blogabetes
Everything seems to be all over the place lately. Despite catching up on school work and actually de-stressing this week, my blood sugars are bouncing like rubber balls in an airplane bin. My averages are up, yet I'm having rashes of severe lows. And

Blogabetes
last night I screamed. I screamed in the kitchen last night. I beat my fists against my legs and pounded my feet against the cold tile floor like a child in the midst of a temper tantrum. I clenched my fists and screamed.

Worn Bum
PUMPed UP
Last week I enjoyed a five day trek with my site in my left bumcheek. I had amazingly awesome blood sugars. Ranging from 80 mg/dl to 140 mg/dl. It started before that site change but continued on. During some serious stress and a monthly visit, mind you.

Purpletually in Search of Dewlicious Diet Soda
The Butter Compartment
