Sitting here in my little home away from home, listening to the frogs, the peepers, and the birds singing their evening song. So peaceful and healing. Did I ever write that my husband actually gets angry at the birds when they wake him up in the morning? One of the reasons he will no longer open the windows, I guess. I can't imagine. To me, going to bed and waking up hearing the birds, etc. is a luxury.
I am married to a man who has been a Type 1 diabetic for over 30 years. He also has sleep apnea, spinal stenosis, neuropathy, gastroparesis, and retinopathy. He has had triple bypass surgery and a kidney transplant (I was the living donor). Because of his high and low blood sugars, mood swings are a constant concern. Some days, I just want some semblance of "normal" in my life!

Doesn't make you a horrible person at all, Lilly. It is what it is. I hope things improve, but I hope the peace you are experiencing there doesn't change. Anyhow, one thing I wanted to mention: have you been reading at all any of the Diabetes Blog Week prompts and posts? I'd be very interested in seeing your perspective, as one of those valuable voices in the Type 3 world. Whatever you decide, thanks for sharing here. And best your way.
