New Journey

My family started a new journey today and it's not one we would have chosen for ourselves.  My husband was diagnosed with diabetes.  He went in for a physical and his blood sugar was 242.  We did an A1C Home Test and the result was 11.4%.  Just before dinner, he tested at 221 and two hours later it was 347. 

This diagnosis is going to require a lot of dietary changes for our family but we will deal with it.  Our family has already been through so much together and this is just another hurdle for us to leap over.  In a way, it is kind of a relief to get this diagnosis because it explains several things that have been going on with him lately. It will definitely be a difficult journey, but we can do this. :)

Until next time . . .
