Here is something that might be important, I don't just have diabetes, I have asthma too. My mom wrote it on her blog so it reminded me to write it on mine. By the way, you can see my mom's blog at t1tween.blogspot.com.
Here is what happened last night. I just slept, which is normal, but I just slept I think completely still. Then when my mom woke me up in the morning before she left for work to test my blood sugar I had to go to the bathroom. I had to cough but I figured it would go away. Then what felt like only 5 minutes later ( which was really about a half hour ) my dad woke me up to get ready for school. The cough feeling didn't go away so I coughed and got this weird sour taste.
Ok now it's like 3:30 and I just got out of school and my mom said she has a cold and thinks it's mine ( well the cold I had like a week ago. It was so weird because it made my blood sugar go low insead of high like normal for me. Well she says she doesn't feel good like at all but she seems ok.
This has nothing to do with diabetes but I have a cat named Scruffy. He is so cute ( and dirty, itchy and of course scruffy, well we found him as a stray what do you expect from that ) . He is allergic to chicken and I think beef too. Why is this important? Well, if you have a ca as a pet, try looking at the ingredients in your cat's food. Chicken will probably be 1-10 for ingredients. What happens when he eats chicken? He gets even itchier than he would be.
how many people do you know that have diabetes

The day I got diabetes
At about 8:00 AM one morning my babysitter came. I was hungry so I got a jello out of the fridge and ate it. I started to gag while eating it but I kapt on eating. Then I was still hungry so I got a yogurt and ate it. A few minutes later we went outside. I was still hungry so I got a granola bar. While eating it, my mouth was so dry! I was drinking a water bottle but it didn't help much. Then we went to my babysitter's house. Her mom offered me some milk and cookies. I only ate one cookie but drank all of the milk. Then we went to the bank. I got a lollipop. My mouth was so dry so I tried eating it and it didn't help much at all. Then we went to Friendly's for lunch. I got a drink of course and well, after lunch we went bowling. I was so thirsty I drank it all, I even waited for the ice to melt. Then we went to the mall then home. I threw up and then my mom came home. We went to the doctor and my blood sugar was 503. We went to the hospital and after a while they said I could eat and gave me a sugar-free popcicle. It didn't even start melting till like midnight! My mom slept on this sofa/bed thing that she said was really uncomfortable, but it's what they had in the hospital room. The nurse came in like every hour and my mom woke up every time. That is the day I got diabetes.
My life as a type one
Hi I'm Catie. I was diagnosed with diabetes when I was 8. Well, now I'm 10 and I have an insulin pump. It is so awesome. The first day I went to school with the waistband that held my my pump I was embaressed about having this big thing around my waist, but now I go to school and I don't even think about wearing it.
One thing I like about diabetes? Well candy is medicine, of course! Most people say that sugar tabs are chalky and gross, I think they taste good, but when I get a low blood sugar i want to eat chocolate graham crackers! They are just so good!
