Or would you rather live like everyone else with all sorts of ailments who were too lazy to portion their food out and end up hurting themselves in the long run? Our food is our fuel and our blood is our oil...I know I put the best in my own body and car because I want it to last.  |
Yes I know - My thing with my Diabetes is, do I want that candybar right now, or can I wait and is it worth my leg? That's what gets me thru everything - I am just so grateful I never developed a sweet tooth and I have never been so food driven - and I try and raise my kids the same way - but there are some things, and we all have them, that are going to test us beyond belief.
Believe it or not, they are STILL running tests on her - she is on her 2nd Dr now, the first can't figure out what is going on - this one is a specialist (Upper GI) and he's being extremely thorough - he's running a LOT of tests to help us get to the bottom of it... cheeses, anything with a lot of fat, dairy, things like that - if she eats very much at all, she is in what she calls "insta pain" - so until we find out for 100% sure, it's safer for me to get her on as little whole and fatty and fried things as I can, she seems to tolerate that better... but it's scaring the hell out of me because this is not me, this is my baby!!
We are hoping the tests he has planned for Tuesday will show us whatever it is we need to know to move forward. She's been on clear liquids more than not the past month - poked, prodded, thrown in the hospital, x-rays, cat scans - you name it and she's had it done - up to this, she's been pretty damn healthy!
