Ever grown up through life knowing that two hereditary dispositions loomed above your head and you did everything in your power to ensure that you succumbed to those dispositions. The first one was socially acceptable until it became an excess and was a contributing factor to the second. Two months ago I was diagnosed a Diabetic. For over twenty-one years now I have been a major donator to famous intoxicating liquor.
Both Diabetes and Alcoholism run in m family. I knew this growing up. I loved to have fun. Don't get me wrong, this is not a sad, request for sympathy or "Do this, and Look What Will Happen" type of article. Just a few funny lines about how I got to this point. Truth is two and half months ago I was just trying to get m primary doctors' approval for knee surgery. Now my whole is in major change mode.
I mean I love sports and had to get my ACL replace and meniscus repaired. I was in decent shape but my leg prevented me from doing better and for another reason to be related later. I loved golf, going out with friends, hitting the country music scene and spending special time with my favorite girl. Now I know these things can all still happen but some adjustment have to be made.
I have done some crazy things in my life that would make some people fall down laughing and others blush. I've had two marriages that have lasted two weeks and twelve hours respectively. I met m biological father when I was thirty, and after three visits his wife forbid him to see me again. I've even been in a three car pile up and walked away. And then there was the Marine Corps.
So, I had to immediately get my blood sugar down to get surgery. I'm talking drastic measures for a blood sugar count of 465. I did get the surgery and am currently in physical therapy. I know have to ponder how m y life is going be and what steps I'm going to take to get to where I want to be.
I forgot to add that my affection for barley and hops has led me down what I would call a strange path. Once again I am not requests for sympathy or preaching going on in this article. Suffice to say that with these two dispositions are going on, I am also currently Profession deficient. Thank the person above that my daughter just graduated High School. Oh yeah, I'm a single parent too. Who knows, Diabetes may be the second best this to happen to me.
