My hero

Okay so this is really just a shout out to my rock, my life support,  my amazing boyfriend who yesterday afternoon proved again how I lucky I am to have him.
Let me give you some back story, me and my boyfriend met about 5 years ago while I was in a very rough patch of my diabetes I seemed to be living in a hospital bed.
When we met he was terrified of needles, and blood and hospitals ingeneral.  But for whatever reason this boy who was new to my friend group would come hang out in my hospital rooms everyday. Slowly he started asking questions like "what would I do if you drop too low" or "incase of emergency how do I give a needle?" or "how much do I give?" he was really starting to care about me he had made that very clear.
Now since I started pumping me him and one diabetic nurse have been the only ones to change my sites I get serious panic attacks whenever I try.

Yesterday afternoon while he was in the middle of a very busy work day I sent him a text telling him we would need to do a site change as soon as he got home at 5 that I felt something maybe wrong with my site.
He came threw the door only 7 minutes later immediately getting a site from its spot? I asked if he was done early? And he responded "no, but someone can wait another 20 minutes to get there Internet activated, he wasn't willing to wait another 2hours and risk me going into DKA."

I am clearly very lucky to have him in my life. Advice hope everyone has someone like him to love care and support them. 

Xox have a great day everyone.

I know my body

Let me start by saying I know my body. I know my body very well!
So when I wake up 2 hours before my alarm with what feels like a rock in my stomach and the feeling I may throw up I know I'm having a high blood sugar. This morning I woke up with no insulin in my pump witch makes me alittle frustrated; 😤 I can admit I didn't look to see if I had enough last night. I didn't think I had to I got no low resivour warning! I should have made it threw the night. Even worse, my pump didn't wake me up when it did finally run out of insulin! What kind of life support system is this!?

I know have a new resivour no sleep and a blood sugar of 13.9 thanks Pump I almost had a perfect two week streak.

Sorry for the rant.

I'm an adult rant.

Let me start this off by saying I am infact an adult. I may not look the part all the time I may not act the part when u watch Saturday morning cartoons but agenst EVERYONES believes I am a 20 year old female who does not live with her parents. I have bills I have a full time job and I have responsibilities.

So to the girl behind the cash at Canadian Tire watching me struggle to find my wallet and giggling when I reject donating to whatever the hell fundraiser your currently trying to raise money for please understand I simply cannot afford that extra 5 dollars.

I'm already in the negatives this month and it's only the second I paid my rent and hydro, followed by car insurance and Internet bills. Then I went to do my groceries only to find I can't do my groceries I've not only already got NO MONEY to my name but have some how managed to become 8 dollars in dept. So please little 15 year old girl behind the cash snicker at me again for not giving to your charity.

Rent ended.
