I wanted to thank those who have wished me well in getting better. I've had my set backs again! I had to be put back on the Prednisone again so i could breath. I am confident in due time i will be back to myself again.  It kind of helps me to keep a positive outlook on the road ahead. with me being sick, I am actually having to look at doing a medical drop for the semester in college. Just so I can get the appropriate rest needed to get better. My body is just fighting against the medications the doctors have been giving me. After these new round of medications, the doctors are going to give my body a break and hope it will help. My fingers are crossed and trying to look at the who side of it all.

   I definitely was one of those who's Halloween got lost in the goodies this year. Last year, my kids called me Cruella Deville. This year, the kids are checking my forhead to see if i was okay. I was being way too nice this year. It doesn't make matter easy when you go into a store and they've got the left over candy 75% off. I am feeling so weak here!(Chuckling). 

   Anyways, I called Animas back today to see if they could give me a straight answer of all the locations where I could put my insulin pump at. I have in almost two years, always placed it on my belly. Picture my poor belly looking like a pin coushion. I wanted to give my belly a break. I tried my hip/leg are and was a pain trying to sleep and not get dislodged. I was told you can put it on your chest. Animas once again said it was up to my medical team to decide this. I tried to explain to them I was told i could put it any one of the spots i wanted to from the areas they has recommended. NO ONE has ever told me it was a medical team decision. I gave up trying and decided I could wait two more days till I meet my Endo for the first time. Maybe I can et some straight answers now.

   right about now, with everything that has been going on in the past couple of months with my diabetes, medical team, and my insulin pumping. I am getting very angry and frustrated. I can NEVER get any straight answers. I can NEVER get everyone on the same page and together on everything. I have to learn and find out differently that something is not right the hard way. These are the kinds of things that make me inferiorated with dealing with my care. For once, all I want to get be straight with my diabetes. Stop all the bull that is going on. Live a better life and know I am doing something right. I feel like I have no direction with what, how, and all that will my pumping and my diabetes.

   On another less stressful note. I got to sit on Santa'a lap (my husband jokingly) and was asked what I wanted for Christmas this year. WOW! The above was one of the things on my list. My new insulin pump upgrade was high on my list. Along with making sure my kids actually got and had a good Christmas this year. Things have been rough for us. I am hoping Mr. Claus will let me order it for Christmas with the help of a early partial return on our taxes. Happy shopping...Christmas is right around the corner. That is my time of year when I shine.
