Confession 4/10/15

Although it has been 12 years since I have been diagnosed as a Type 2 diabetic, trying to cope with this silent disease has not been easy at all. Just because I don't look sick doesn't mean that I don't have my bad days. Lately, I haven't been feeling that hot. I went back to working nights because working days doesn't pay enough and my diet has been suffering for it. My blood sugar levels are out of wack from staying up all night and eating not that healthy. Now I am always hungry and thirsty and my joints hurt so bad, it is hard to get out of bed some days. I know that I have to make some radical changes because what I do today can come back to haunt me later on down the road. Am I scared? Of course I am. I can run the risk of kidney damage, amputation, and a myriad of other health issues. Here goes nothing!!!
