This day 2 years ago my wife and son had to carry me and load me into the car. I was too weak to stand on my own. I couldn’t walk.
I was on my way to the ER in diabetic ketoacidosis. Glucose 693. A1C was 12.6.
It was a scary experience. I saw fear in the eyes of my wife. She didn’t know what was wrong with me. She thought she was about to become a widow.
I was incoherent. The next few days are pretty much a daze for me.
But on my second day in the ICU I was aware enough to ask her why I was there. That’s when she told me.
I was T2D and had gone into DKA.
I didn’t know. Hadn’t had blood work in a few years. I had contracted COVID two weeks prior for the first time. Covid exacerbated the T2D.
So here I was.
In the ICU and coming to the realization I was there because I had eaten my way into this problem. This very serious problem.
I could have made my wife a widow and my children fatherless.
And for what? Food? That 3rd helping? Those extra peanut butter cups? Pizza? Gluttony?
In that moment I vowed to eat my way back out.
And that’s what I’ve done.
Never again will my wife and son have to physically carry me because I wasn’t responsible enough to care for my health as I should.
Never again will I be the weak link in my family.
So I do what I got to do each and every day to ensure I reduce the chances of my wife and children ever having to see me like that again.
They deserve me at my best so that’s what I’m goin to give them from this point forward.
If you know you got changes to make, make them.
Don’t delay. Life is too precious.
