Pneumonia + Diabetes = A Really Bad Time
I came down with a type of pneumonia last weekend. The doctors had no idea what type of bacteria that was in my lungs. So, they just through everything they had at it. By the end of this week I was doing better.

Okay, so I have a problem. I’m 23 years old and feel like superman most of the time. I just take my insulin and keep going through out my day.
After spending 5 days in the hospital, 1 day at the family doctor, and 5 hours in the ER, I’m about to change my ways.
