FFF 2-16: It’s Official…
i am officially diabetic. Or, as I pointed out to the somewhat officious nurse practitioner who broke the news to me, i am "a person with diabetes." That is the more person-centered language that's preferred in health care these days. This was after I heard her tell someone down the hall that she had "a … Continue reading FFF 2-16: It’s Official…
Monday, Monday
After all my fine talk about FFF, and wanting to get healthy, yesterday i binged on carbs and sugar and fat like there was no such thing as obesity or Diabetes, Type II. Yep. I ate some healthy meals - then filled in the gaps with a vanilla milkshake with 2 shots of espresso (yes, … Continue reading Monday, Monday

Yesterday
Yesterday, i paid a few dollars to spend 45 minutes in a quiet place, looking at fake stars on the ceiling, listening to piped in New Age music. Reclining in a comfy chair, tucked in with a blanket over me, i just breathed. i was aware of my body, and sensations in my hands, my … Continue reading Yesterday
