We buried a friend today. He was diabetic and overweight, had high bp and cholesterol and not sure what else. He had neuropathy so badly in his feet he could not feel them. He had a crushed ankle that required surgery and didn't even know it was broke. He ate anything and everything he wanted. He just took more insulin. He was 56. Left a wife, a daughter he just got reacquainted with and a beautiful granddaughter who adored him. While I am not perfect in my quest to live a no...rmal life, I have vowed to my partner that even this horrible disease may take me down that path, it won't be because I didn't work hard. I cannot allow myself to be that selfish. Sorry. I just had to get that out. It has renewed my will to get my butt out of bed at 4:30 to get on my treadmill and ride my bike. I must do the physical. I eat good. I just got lazy. OK I'm done.
