Blood 259  9/29/18 8:18 PM.   I didn't take my shot this afternoon so this should go lower.  I am going to shoot myself with the weekly medicine too.

Why did the elephant wish he had only one ear?  He didn't want to be too irrelevant (two ear elephant).
I am going to post a "joke of the day" from now on to lighten your moods.  I have 108 jokes in my joke book I wrote.

Blood 453  9:20/18  6:22 PM.  I did eat some dinner so this is going to be higher than normal.
  Tomorrow morning.  will show a better reading.


This is for general information about my health and social status.
I had 2 mininor and one large stroke in my life.  There are blood clots that are being slowly desolved because of a regimen of aspirins.

I experience short term memory loss at times. This is the first sign of dementia.  This, added to the blood clots, is probably compounding the memory loss problems.  I have trouble remembering names.  I have no friends outside of my family.  There is no social contact to be had.  I am afraid that
I won't perform normally and may be chastised for it.

My world revolves around 1:Thomas my son 2:John my brother.  That is my sphere of relationships.  My brother, Gilbert, lives in the same house but  he is territorial and stays in the living room and owns the downstairs bathroom.  He and I can't occupy the same room (kitchen) at the same time.  We don't trespass on each other's territory.  He is my brother but we are drifting apart as time goes on.  We rarely talk to each other.  We can go days without talking, even weeks.  He stays in the living room day and night, sometimes going into the kitchen.  I stay in my bedroom which used to be the family room.  I am either practicing piano, surfing the Internet or eating what I cooked on the stove.  Gil and I never share the same space.  He and I don't talk.  He has become a stranger. 

I  have no friends except for my son Thomas.  My other two sons and my daughter never call me. I am isolated from my family.  My brother, George, never calls or emails me.  I have tried to communicate with him on several occasions but he has his own problems and won't talk to me.
I don't blame him.  He has  his own life.  John is my only real companion and brother.  Tom is my only real friend and son.

I never see or talk to my only sister.  I wish she'd call and say hello once in a while.

So Gil is a fellow occupant of the house.  Rosemary and George are strangers. 
My solution is going to be developing friendships outside of my family.  My son and I are
planning to go to a local recreation center and  join some sort of club.  Wish me luck.
I am going to start acting more sociable on my own accord.  Tom will benefit too.

9/28/18 9:32 AM   145 blood.  For breakfast I am eating 2 eggs and 2 toasts.

9/17/18   127 this morning. 8:42.  It looks like the meds are working.
Why do I get only one weeks worth of meds every week?  Why not save time and trouble by
giving me two more boxes and come to fill them every three weeks?  I depend on the meds.  Diabetes is what killed Mary.  She went into a coma and died in her sleep.

Sunday, September 16, 2018

9/16/18  127 this morning at 8:17 AM  I am not sure I should take full insulin seeing the level is so low.

I shot myself with Trilisity and my regular shot of insulin early this morning.  I'll get a better shot tomorrow.   I'm not  worried about the 329.  I deserved it by satiating my need for food.
