I think if we didn't have medical issues to worry about, then we could enjoy the whole movie without leaving the theatre to check in or worry about having to leave church during service or the everyday being interrupted for school lunch doses and sleepovers could actually happen without feeling like we're burdoning another family.<br /><br />But I cannot imagine our life differently. In the whole scheme of things, we are a better family and individuals for our trials. Sure it sucks....big time...but who knows where we'd be otherwise. And who cares? This is where we're supposed to be and it's only forward from here. <br /><br />It took almost these entire 7 years to get to this point though, and I don't want the credit.....it's because of our faith that we have come as far as we have. Trusting in The Lord makes it so much easier to deal with!

[and crazy doctors! but I'm sure they had Jada's welfare in mind, so we'll forgive them, right? :)] I often wonder how my parents would answer this question. One thing I know for sure, God's will was always first for them...and because of that, my health fared well. <br /><br />BTW, what does your husband do that you went from Texas to Oklahoma to Alaska? Does he drill for oil or something? :) just curious. Have a great day and thanks for visiting my blog.Bethannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01614416426769587718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001527982718639574.post-54041970916168325612009-11-10T08:54:32.991-06:002009-11-10T08:54:32.991-06:00Love your post, so positive!!

I took my shots, but other than that ignored my care. <br /><br />The past six months have been different and I hope my answer will change dramatically over the next few years!Sarah and Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03299877306351922272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001527982718639574.post-56476656537015165662009-11-09T22:11:05.494-06:002009-11-09T22:11:05.494-06:00Amy - I commented on my own post but wanted to tha...Amy - I commented on my own post but wanted to thank you for your message and let you know that I would love to join the next live chat.

You are doing great and it's been a pleasure "meeting" you and Jada and the rest of the crew. If you had asked me 17 years ago about Diabetes, I'm not sure of my response, but today I would tell you that I have a very healthy 18 year old in college that just so happens to have diabetes.

Good for you for standing up to that fear and living your life! I remember when our first was diagnosed, the doctor told us he just had a little girl with T1 take a trip to Europe. I thought that family was CRAZY! How could they travel across the seas with this overwhelming disease! Sure enough, 1 year later we took J to Germany. It was wonderful...and thank goodness...Diabetes didn't stop us either!Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752883120541646427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001527982718639574.post-44511454628562784182009-11-09T19:33:24.597-06:002009-11-09T19:33:24.597-06:00I love it!
