I knew I would not be on much during finals, but I thought I would blog shortly after the last exam. My how your plans can suddenly change.
After the last exam I had a short week break before the summer session started. I was extremely tired, but for a law student that has become an everyday thing in my life.  Boy was I wrong. I went into the hospital with diabetes ketoacidosis. After 2 days in ICU and 2 more in a room I was allowed to come home to adjust to my new life as a Type 1 diabetic.
Law school, 2 jobs, and my family is enough on my plate. I really do not want to start giving myself 3 shots of insulin a day, but that is the life I now lead. I had all the symptoms, but had no idea I had diabetes. I have a great wife to help me cope diabetes. I hope my life settles down, but if not I will each day realize I am a blessed man whose cup runneth over.
