So thankful to have my older brother back from choir tour!
Life at home just isn't normal without Ben.
It has been a month . . .
Seems much more like a few years...
In one month, I have had a needle break my skin 778 times.
I have given myself 248 shots. Pricked my fingers 526 times.
It's hard to explain type one.
When I'm high, my vision blurs and I feel really crabby.
When I'm low, my body gets shaky and weak.
When I'm low, I get sugar. :)
When I'm high, I get a shot. :(
When I'm perfect, I get surprised! :)
One thing for sure, this one month has been a success.
Although my numbers have been everywhere.
I am starting a new habit of thanking the Lord for every shot.
Each shot is an injection of life!
I know for those it is harder to understand what living with type one is like.
To describe one month of supplies, I thought it would be neat to show a picture of the supplies.
As they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words."
Technically, this is only a 100 shots. :) Double what you kinda see, and you've got a months worth! :)
Happy 1 Month Anniversary!
Caleb, keep updating us all. It's fun to hear more details and it helps in praying for you, too!
ReplyDeleteYou are right! A picture is worth a thousand words. So is having your total pin cushion count for the month. Just the supplies alone is incredible to think about. I am so thankful that you are thankful for the gift of life that each injection brings.
