Kerry & Kathy
Member #007
Very sorry to hear of the personal family loses....
Kathy was just released from the Mineral Area Hospital after being in ICU for three days.
She went into Diabetic Keto Acidosis Tuesday where her blood sugar went out of control. She went in with blood sugars in the high 500's and while in the ICU experienced a dramatic drop in blood sugar to a low of 33... She was given morphine to control the abdominal pain.
As a result... her heart was beating irregularly and her kidneys were acting abnormally.
She is out of the hospital now and just resting at home.
But this is the 10th episode of DKA she has experienced in the past 13 years. She describes it ....like hitting a brick wall.
Hug your spouses tonight....and appreciate how lucky you are.
Then imagine being without them in your life. Then TELL them how you feel.
Life is short and unpredictable. Make sure you value those things in life that are most important.
