I’m glad to hear you are on top of situation. If your sugar is a bit high you’re in luck. I’m a T2 diabetic and have been for over 40 years. So I can tell you a lot about how I deal with it. I think my background in chemistry and computer science predisposes me to problem solving. If I get annoying… just let me know.

It is a rare day that I do not walk. I find my T2 diabetes is much easier to manage if I start my day with a walk. And if I mess up my diet I can always fix it with another walk. And if I’m feeling down in the dumps … yep you guessed it I go for a walk. Maybe my name should be Dr. Walker. 😉

I’m thinking about scattering my husband’s ashes at sea. The first husband was scattered there and I’m leaving instructions I want the same. He wanted a bit to be scattered at our favorite dog park as well. We had many wonderful days at that dog park with the chihuahuas.

(1 comment) Cadee @Cadee2719 GOOD LUCK with your tele-health call TOMORROW. If you feel up to it, we want to hear how it went. SIGNED: Dr. Diane @DianeB887812 & Dr. Nicole aka TWO VERY NOSEY GALS/lol 😂🤣 On the serious side the TEAM wants to hear 🤗🤗🤗
[*** CADEE wrote: I get my tele-health call on 7/11. If he is unable to extend the medication, I will research other options. It should not be this difficult to continue care. St. Luke's Hospital is near and I will ask them for guidance. The doctors I am transferring to are all at St. Lukes. ***]

(4 comments) Thanks for asking Diane @DianeB887812 🤗🤗🤗
I have bloodwork on the 24th. She asked if I had trauma with toes. Nope! Anyway, circulation is okay. She checked that.

Glad that they are doing the bloodwork on you. Hopefully it will explain the problem with your toes. People don't have blue toes!! Good news: I had my tele-health appt. with the doctor in CA. He said the inflammation in my body was off the charts so he not only agreed to continue the medication until I see the new doctor BUT to increase the dosage due to the amount of pain that I am in. He will do blood test in 6 weeks to check on me. I truly appreciated this. Secondly, my cardiologist forwarded all the necessary records, referrals and I should be getting an appointment with a new cardiologist soon. I STRONGLY suggest anyone needing new doctors start early in the process because it takes a lot of phone calls and a long, long time to accomplish this. Just a reminder: for those of us that spent years caring for another, must now spend that time and energy caring for oneself. Take Care

Cadee @Cadee2719 ,
I like your good news about your telehealth appointment. You now have two of your doctors working to bridge the gap as you transition to your new doctors. Your persistence has paid off and your advice is helpful for people who are planning a move. You are doing great in the self-care department!

Well hmph! No real answers. Good that circulation is ok. I would keep my feet up as much as possible. Any swelling?
Can you tell Dr Diane is nosy? Remember you asked!
By the way I spent 3 hrs at the vehicle Tag and registration office. Yuk! Husband was disabled and now I need to go back to regular parking. Also wanted to make sure I can sell/ trade in my current 2004 car without issues. So I lied and did not take the day off but this was a good thing to get done and did not require a lot of thinking.
keep me up to date on your toes if you don’t mind. I need someone to worry about 😉

Diane @DianeB887812 ,
You got another thing marked off your list! I don't know what you will do with your current car, but I will mention that I had a good experience selling my husband's car with Carvana. It was pretty easy and straightforward, it was completed in a short period of time, I got a reasonable price, and with a relatively small extra money amount they came to my house and picked it up.

How are YOU? 🤔
Today is my Out Of Food Run to Walmart.
Gosh, still hoping to run into employee Dalinda there. And if not, hanging on to the MEMORIES AND GRATITUDE of having met her.
Everyone FIND YOUR PEACE TODAY,
Nicole 🤗🤗🤗

Nothing scheduled for today. I think I’ll try taking a day off and see how it goes. Got some good sleep last night but I still feel tired. But I’m not surprised, I’ve been working overtime since April doing the caregiver role. It was brutal. I deserve a day off. 😉

It's good that you are being gentle with yourself. Caregiving and loss take an enormous toll on the body and it will take more than one night of quality sleep to recover. Self-care is important so take the day off and treat yourself well!

(2 comments) Any PBS fans out there? Luv any of the shows in the attachment? I am headed to WATCH Grantchester and Profesor T. They air on Sundays with a video AVAILABLE for free on MONDAYS on their PBS app. I use the Android cell phone version. Lol, and Mr. (you know who 🐈🐱) was here about 15 minutes ago. Left. So his happy a.s will be OUTSIDE if he decides to return. NO ONE messes with my PBS TIME. See you!!! Nicole 👵
