Update: Family would like to keep their privacy about my nephew, thanks to my psychotic ex-step-mother (she has been disowned by the family and don’t want her knocking on the door again).

Now, about me…
Change.  That’s the word of the week. :)  I have been offered an awesome job where I will be working as a database coordinator dealing with research and Cystic Fibrosis!!!! How perfect is that?!  I am going to have to move back to Denver, which I am overly excited about.  I miss home.  But I have no idea where I am going to live which has me a bit freaked out for the moment.  The unknown always stresses me out.  I’ll be ok, just a little edgy and sleep deprived for the next few weeks.

For all who helped me out with my medical bills, I can’t thank you enough!!  For the first time since I was diagnosed with diabetes (like 7 years ago) I am FINALLY in control of my blood glucose numbers!!!  My A1c level is 6.0, down from 8.3 a few months ago.  This means I am no longer in the super high risk category for horrible complications.  I am feeling a TON better too.  Three things that have really helped me get control was my new insulin pump (Medtronic Minimed 522), a Blackberry (where I can look up food carb counts when out and about), and the almost complete elimination of high fructose corn syrup from my diet.  I want to write a post about each of them, how I did it, how it helped and such, so stay tuned!
