Doggone it. I've been really sick with Diabetic Ketoacidopholis - or something like that. I had to be in the hospital to get my blood back in balance. I had been put on a new medicine and it messed up my system so much I couldn't stop having vomiting and the other end so much I was dehydrated terribly and then couldn't stand up without fainting. I'm back home now, but really can't eat or drink much, but I have to. So Ladies, if you have diabetes, keep eating and drinking those liquids!

I am sorry to hear your body is stressing. It makes sense though, with what you have experienced the last couple months. Now you have to listen to your body and take good care of yourself. FSL almost stitches itself! I always feel better just watching a piece come together. or maybe it is hearing the sound of stitching that soothes my soul, I just got home, my machine has been here for 24 hours and I really want to unpack it! I have chores first. But I will be stitching before the day is through! Yeah!
Get well soon my friend, and come to town and visit me please.

Dear Jan, I'm so sorry that you're going through this. As all the others have said, please take care of yourself. You know you should know better as you've been looking after that 56 year old man with diabetes. I hope all your family will 'mother' you so much that you will just bloom. Please take care Jan as we all need you on here too. The flower is the native Sturt's Desert Pea (Swainsona formosa) the floral emblem of South Australia (no perfume to upset you!!!!!)
Love Chris

As they told me when breastfeeding, eat FOODS that are high in LIQUIDS, as this can get you a long way to re-liquefying yourself (I know that's not the word. So, watermelon or cantaloupe, if you can tolerate that amount of near-liquid sugar, cucumbers, soups, sugarless Jello, stewed tomatoes, custard (control amount of sugar), veggies with their stock, or just do as my grandpa did. When the meal was over he went to the kitchen and drank all the leftover liquids from the veggies, drinking everyone's vitamins. (He lived to age 96).

Bet your skin is dehydrated, too. After you shower and while you're still wet apply lotion to arms, hands, feet - whatever's most dried out. The lotion does not rehydrate - it simply holds the water from your shower TO your skin and the WATER itself rehydrates you.

Hope you begin to improve quickly.. Sending up a little prayer for you!

Did you know that you were diabetic? It sounds like stress, warm weather and your whole system sent you a message that you couldn't ignore. I hope that you feel better soon. Very soon!

Jan, I am so sorry to hear this. Diabetes can do a whammy on you. Joe was diagnosed with diabetes a few months ago, and I try so hard to cook the right foods to keep his blood sugar in balance. I fix "nibbles" for him to take to work for his mid morning, mid afternoon snacks, such as veggies, nuts, and some fruits. So far, so good. He has so many other health issues, he HAS to keep his sugar in balance!! Hoping you are feeling better, and getting all under control
Loving hugs,
Angel

Thank you, dear friends, I'm doing better today, and I'm going to get some watermelon for sure. I'm trying so hard to keep everything in balance. But balance is sooo difficult. Love you all and appreciate all your warm wishes and prayers. Hugs, Jan
