Hello! I have
arrived safely this evening in rainy Yorkshire. I don't seem too impressed yet
my host, Rosie, calls it Gods Own Country!
I'm busy making
friends already!
I'm looking
forward to spending time with her and learning all about how a Type 2 diabetic
lives especially a busy student nurse! She tells me the diagnosis may be wrong
and we'll find out on Friday. Who knew it could be so difficult to diagnose
diabetes?
My host isn't
feeling very well today and as much as she wants to eat rubbish, she has to be
even more careful than normal as being unwell can cause spikes in blood sugar.
She showed me that she was 15.3 this evening which I thought was very high!!
She has explained to me that readings this high are common for her due to being
newly diagnosed and not on insulin.
Time for a well
deserved cup of tea (no sugar!) and homemade soup.
For now, the
only sweet thing I've been told I'm allowed near is the scented candle!
Best get an
early night as she's taking me to work in the morning!
