Im up because of a nap that should not have happened earlier - thus Im hoping around my favorite Dblogs clicking on links from theirs to ones Ive not been too. I think Ive been hear but it could have been forever ago. my brain is fried. <br />sorry - digressed - <br />great post. Its a hard question to answer for sure - harder when the inquiring party starts sharing THE stories before waiting for an answer. <br />you handled it beautifully. I always like Meri's answer too - she has said it before and its a good non-comital answer that leaves it up to the inquirer to inquire further. <br />I like that you said you don't live in fear. At some point I think we pass the fear point. Maybe it is a fight or flight type thing our brains do. We just know and we do what we can to hope its never a reality. <br />again - great post. also I wish I was a runner - I bet it feels wonderful to run - I mean if you stay hydrated and all. <br />Cheers.

For reasons I cannot understand, I still want people to know what our kids have to live with so my stock answer usually ends up being "well, it never stops but overall we're good". Like that makes a bit of difference. laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12660924378036523017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177432865376147686.post-52816329843526800382013-07-22T11:38:22.897-04:002013-07-22T11:38:22.897-04:00I usually appreciate when others know the real asp...I usually appreciate when others know the real aspects of diabetes that keep us on our toes, but sometimes the way it just rolls of their tongue is difficult for me to swallow especially in front of the kids. Thankfully this lovely lady shared when kids weren't around. And hopefully you got your water :) Take care and once again bravo to you for listening without responding as I often want to!
