Oops.<br /><br />Life is choices, and I think most of us make pretty good ones... the best that we can make with the information and bodies we have, that is.<br /><br />A commenter on my post said, we could die in a horrible car accident tomorrow, so why worry so much about the possible but unknowable long-term consequences?

It is so difficult to try and maintain "healthy" BG levels. There is always a risk of being too high or too low, each with their own consequences to our health. It's a catch 22, but all we can do is take one day at a time and never take today for granted.Katinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-42245936485303614342011-11-03T08:28:33.962-05:002011-11-03T08:28:33.962-05:00Wow, what an excellent post!

T1D involves so much self-management that it's hard not to constantly wonder if you're making the right decision each time you have to make one. I personally just try to do what "feels" right. The one thing diabetes has given me is an excellent understanding of my own body, and a gut feeling sometimes of what's working and what isn't. This sometimes means that I have to ignore what a doctor tells me and go with my gut, which can be really hard to do! But I've proven myself right enough times to know that I know my body best!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7860126842626343555.post-42345628267148845092011-11-03T08:00:57.742-05:002011-11-03T08:00:57.742-05:00Makes me think that people who mindlessly say '...Makes me think that people who mindlessly say 'live life to the fullest' have NO idea what they are talking about.
