epiphany or getting my shit straight

I had an epiphany last night:  my diabetes is still the 800 lb gorilla in the room yet I find myself ignoring him. Perhaps it is the possible presence of a 1000 lb crocodile (blood cancer) in the room?

I realized that I have to be worried about more than one severe threat to my health. So far, the serious threats are:

• diabetes
• heart problems
• possible blood cancer or bone marrow problems

The asthma is almost a non-starter given this gang of three or possibly four.

I check my blood sugar twice a day on Tuesday and Thursdays. The AM test is when I get out of bed and the PM test is two hours after I finish dinner.
