I now have further proof that my boyfriend is awesome incarnate

 So.... Walker saved someone's life on Saturday night.  I mean, I've always realized since we met that he's amazing, but this was the frosting on the cake.

Who's life did he save?  Mine.

I woke up on Saturday morning around 9am and decided to read for a bit.  I realized I was still tired, so I decided to take a nap around 10am.  The next thing I know it's 7pm and there are 8 EMT's and a very worried boyfriend in my room.  It seems that my blood sugar dropped so low that they couldn't even measure it.  They gave me glucose through an IV, and said by the time we reached the hospital it should be in the 300's  When we arrived, it was only 130.  Walker had tried to get me to drink some juice, or take some glucose tabs, but I was unresponsive and he called an ambulance.

If he hadn't come over that day, I wouldn't be here.

I'm not sure how or why it happened, but I will never forget what he did for me.

I saw my doctor last night, and have an appointment with my endocrinologist  tomorrow because from Sunday on, I haven't been able to get my sugars below 300 for the most part.  They were above 400 all day yesterday.  My doctor said it's happening because my body is trying to make up for dropping so low, and that it would even out in a few days. I can't wait..... I'm tired, dehydrated, and I've had to swear off Carbs until everything evens out.  It's like I'm forced to start the Adkin's diet.  Maybe I'll lose some weight in the meantime!

So, yeah....I love my man.
