Holly now has diabetes. That’s not all. She’d been getting worse and worse over the last week, so she got the bright idea to get a blood sugar monitor. Thank holy living fucking hell, because the first reading (early this morning) was 448, while a half hour later it was off the meter (600 ).
Normal range is under ~100. The go-ahead-and-freak-out-now point is 250 .
She’s in hospital now, where she’ll be overnight, possibly two nights.
Poor sweet thing… she’s suffered so much. I thought i could handle this until that very thought crossed my mind driving home to pick up some stuff. I choked up a little on that.
She’ll be alright, though. She’s at a great hospital and they’re doing good with her and she’s slowly starting to feel better.
Three words: STEM CELL RESEARCH. Make it happen, Mr. Bush.
