WOW-EEE!!! What a shock this last week has been! As Stacey said, I'm in the ICU at the hospital in Rock Springs. I haven't been feeling too good for a while now, and I guess this is why! A Dr. at the insta-care diagnosed me with Diabetes Tues night with a blood sugar of 350 (it's supposed to be between 80 & 120), sent me home with insulin pills, and told me to go to the lab the next day and get my blood drawn and tested. I didn't make it through the night. About 3:30 AM I couldn't breath and couldn't stand up. Dan rushed me over to the ER and my blood sugar was 600. I don't remember much about that night or the next day. Appearantly I was pretty loopy, and pretty funny. I kept telling the nurses I was in Jackson, they didn't find it very funny... Anyway, we've been working to get the blood sugars leveled out so I can go home, but it's a bit harder than we all expected. They are keeping me in the ICU because I'm very sensitive to any changes in the glucose levels. They're saying it's Type I Diabetes, so I get to have all the fun giving myself injections 4-5 times a day! YIPEEE!!!!
I'm just thankful it's nothing worse... this is totally do-able..

Thanks for the kind words, and all the prayers. I need them, and I can definatly feel them!
Love you all!

So those of you how have not heard Stephanie had to go to the hospital last night and was put in the ICU because she was diagnosed with diabetes and the doctors were trying to regulate it. When my dad talked to Dan he said that she was doing a little better today but she is still in the ICU.
