http://pancreasmom.blogspot.com/2010/03/night-like-tonight.html
Wednesday, March 3, 2010. A night like tonight. Things have been busy, but somehow managable on the diabetes front and so, we live. day to day, moment to moment, like my son and so many other diabetics and parents of t1 kids. we do what we do each day and night. It is a disease that is totally manageable, but totally unpredicatable.kind of an oxymoron (or ironic) . Much love and hugs to you, indefatigable momma! March 3, 2010 at 10:59 PM.

Pancreas Parenting Spot: it's coming...
http://pancreasmom.blogspot.com/2009/06/its-coming.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2009. The anniversary date of Jared's diagnosis. 2 years will be on June 20th. although our log books start on the 22nd of June when we were to start logging the rest of Jared's Carbs and blood sugars for life (or until a cure). to me, both dates are important. I hope Jared's book gets published and that he can have some impact in helping other newly diagnosed kids, or kids who just feel alone and need to know they are not.

My Life: A Long Trip with T1D. Thursday, July 16, 2015. Invisible in the wild. On this cruise-ship – here’s another from my tribe. I wish I could’ve talked to her. Well, I know I could have. But I didn’t even know if she spoke English. And also I didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable in any way. I saw her again in the restaurant a couple of days later. Husband and two energetic kiddos. Eating a bowl of yogurt. “How the hell did she carb count that one? Wednesday, July 15, 2015. Re-reading some posts...
