My 15 year old Bichon Shih-Tzu is dying from leukemia and heart problems. It is highly likely that by the end of July he will be dead. My only regret is not spending more time with him.

My blood results came yesterday: I have High sugar. Fuck. I barely consume sugar only occasionally from one scoop of ice cream and no soda in years.
I might as well commit suicide seeing the shitty hand I've been dealt with health-wise. It's not an ideal answer, but I'm tired of "you're young, you can overcome this and have your life ahead of you" bullshit.
Unfortunately it got my mom worried since both her mom and my biological dad's side of the family has diabetes.Don't know how high your blood sugar is, but my doctor told me that particular reading can change very quickly. Would say a set of readings over a period would give you a better idea of the situation than just one reading. A more important reading is the A1C, which has to do with the likelihood of developing diabetes. If A1C is within normal limits suggest you can breathe a little easier.
My paternal grandfather, dad, one brother, and wife have/had diabetes. So far (mid-60's) have avoided it, get regular blood tests.Unfortunately it got my mom worried since both her mom and my biological dad's side of the family has diabetes.

Trust she is taking her meds. I take all my meds to stay on top of the various conditions.My grandmother has terrible diabetes and high blood pressure despite carefully managing her diet
And she even cooks food for my grandfather that she doesn't eat.Trust she is taking her meds. I take all my meds to stay on top of the various conditions.
Cute cat if nothing else.My eyes hurt and I'm hungry
Blood sugar can be kind of unpredictable. My father is diabetic, and has had days where his blood sugar spikes despite not eating anything but the bare essentials, and others where it hits a nice, normal range despite indulging quite a bit. Mayne invest in a home blood sugar monitor? Might be good to check it a few times and find out if it was just a spike, or if it really does run high for you.My blood results came yesterday: I have High sugar. Fuck.

I'm sure his biggest regret is that he has to leave you at all. Give him a good month, tell him goodbye, and let him know his job's done and it's time for him to rest. And give him a hug for me.My 15 year old Bichon Shih-Tzu is dying from leukemia and heart problems. It is highly likely that by the end of July he will be dead.

Walking alone will do wonders. My dad's diabetes is practically gone because he didn't have a car for a year or so. You should be set if you can stick with the little changes!@Moral Decay, if it feels any better I've been walking in my area in the morning and we might change the diet further baking things with coconut flour.
Well, me and Mom walk since waking up at 6 AM. We went for 33 minutes.Walking alone will do wonders. My dad's diabetes is practically gone because he didn't have a car for a year or so. You should be set if you can stick with the little changes!
Please do not fuck the cat.My eyes hurt and I'm hungry

Kitty love is everything you need.I'm getting a crush on someone. That type of infatuation you get as a 15 year old.
Not pleased with this.
I wish I could have a kitty, but nothing about my life allows it.Kitty love is everything you need.
Don't really understand why so many racks has to be screwed on. Towels aren't heavy and it sits very well with glue. I'm not screwing anything into my tiles.
That's too bad. I guess. Wouldn't be worth having one, unless you can have the cat box on the balcony, and not all have one. Because the smell is nasty regardless of how much you clean.I wish I could have a kitty, but nothing about my life allows it.
No problem gluing shit on tiles, as long as you're sure you want it to stay there.
I got a Vornado in all metal, the plastic models are bad. It blows pretty hard, and it actually gets chilly with it.Hot and annoyed that I can't take off my skin to cool off
