| Hubby hit his head on the door on Monday night. Tuesday night, he starts acting weird. He's slurring words, staggering, has a headache from hell, can't remember things right. He knew he knew people but didn't know how he knew them or their names. He thought our appartment was layed out wrong. He described our old appartment.
So Wednesday, I get a call from his work and I have to get him and bring him home. I called the doctor's office on the way home because of everything he did the night before and he still felt like that. We get to the ER, they did a catscan. That came out normal so no brain bleeding. That's good news. The bad news is that apparently he has type 2 diabetes which explains everything that's been going on and more actually. He was in denial for a while and probably still is a little bit today. His blood sugar was 400 which made the nurses stop when the doctor said that and look up. Well, that can't be good. We've been doing a lot of reading and googling. We have to go to our doctor on Monday and he'll send us to the nutritionist and education classes and get us hooked up with a glucometer. He thinks it's his fault because his mom has ingrained in him that if he didn't lose weight, he would have all these health issues and I've told him all day that I could get it tomorrow. It's more genetic than anything else. We've been eating healthy and exercising actually. I told him we'd get through this and it's manageable. He asked me a question that I've been wondering as well: God does all this stuff for others, why can't He do a little something for us sometimes? Things seem to come so easy to other people while we struggle and hang on to that roller coaster of life. I'm so tired of hanging on, I might just let go and just say to hell with it all. I know what it is, satan is trying so hard to prevent us from doing what we are supposed to do. He must be scared but still knowing that doesn't make going through any of this any easier. We need prayer. Please pray for hubby's health, my sanity, his school and pray that I get a project to earn some money on the side. I need something, big or small, that can earn me some cash. |
What else can go wrong?
