EXCERPT:
When we get to the end of our day, we want to sit back and reflect on everything we did, and we want to know in our hearts that we did a good job being good diabetics for another day. I beat Roger to his daily question today: “Can you think of anything that we can do better tomorrow?” I ask. After quiet contemplation, we both shake our heads, smile, and agree that it was a spectacular day.
X marks the spot. Finding that perfect spot that keeps your blood sugars level, gives you the most energy, and makes you and your doctor happy is crucial. Remember, our diabetic team can do a lot for us, but it’s our job to commit to the program and be good diabetics. Roger and I create our own program with the support of our team of professionals. It’s not necessary for everyone to create a program, but it is important that we work hard to follow the one that’s provided for us.
Yesterday, we created and followed a healthy routine. Today, our goal was to make it a little bit better, and tomorrow is a brand-new day and another blank canvas on which to paint our life. We managed to fit all our necessary components into our busy day and still have a day packed with fun. Today we got our work time in, shared a lot of laughs, visited with some friends, ate healthy, got our exercise in, followed our medication regimen, enjoyed our bath and hygiene time, and still managed to get some rest time in. Tomorrow is a whole other day; we are excited to start it with another spectacular sunrise.
