I don't know if it was stress from the holiday or stress knowing about ongoing health issues with my family but I caved in and had one hell of a carbohydrates fest. My glucose is soaring right now and I need to get back on track.
I ate a Big Mac, 1/2 an large fries. My glucose was 270 at 10:00 on 7/6
I feel awful. I have always been a stress eater . And that hasn't changed.
If your an older follower you're aware my Mother-In-Law is terminally ill. She's on a Bipap at home and her condition is deteriorating.
There's a couple more family members struggling with major health issues. If your not a regular reader you may need to read previous blog entries to get caught up.
My brother is starting to recover after months of ER visits and 5 hospitalizations including 3 operations. He's now home on Oxygen and has a bad infection, most likely caught in the hospital. I worry being so far away from him especially with my niece so close to delivering Levi. I need to be there but I'm needed here for my husband. And I'm needed here for my daddy.
My Dad's Older Brother had Emergency Surgery 3 weeks ago and ended up in ICU. After a week of rehab he was put in a Nursing Home yesterday on isolation on his 80th birthday. I honestly think what little family we have left down here is so minimal to care for him at home. But at the same time it irks me. I'm wondering who signed him in? No I'm not considering getting him out. It hurts me my disability would prevent me from helping with his care. I've got a low back injury that will possibly put me in a wheelchair sooner than I would like. It's just not fair!!!!!
I love my Uncle D. It's just so hard knowing the care he needs is the same care I provided hundreds of others for years I can't provide. My Dad is 73 and he's not physically able now either. I'm so stressed. Please pray for me that I'm able to control my diabetes through this storm.
