I haven't blogged in a couple of weeks. I've been grappling with the news that I'm now a Type II diabetic. My doctor tells me that I will be able to control it with oral medication, diet, and exercise. Type II diebetes plagues my family and I always expected that I would develop the disease. I must admit this is a bit sooner than I expected. I've already changed how I eat and my doctor is happy with my progress in such a short period of time. This is definitely going to change how I live, but I feel lucky to have caught the problem at this early stage.
