Thankful

My toe is healing very well. I thought about posting a picture, but I realize I've posted a lot of pictures of my feet and people are going to start to think I have a foot fetish. Just know, my foot is better. Not quite well enough to get a pedicure, but its getting there.

I noticed people have been posting things they are thankful for on Facebook. I supposed they are doing this because its November and Thanksgiving is coming up. I think that is a wonderful idea.
I was actually thinking of sending "Thank You" cards to people who have affected my life in a positive away to say thank you (my old boss, old teachers, special friends, etc...) I might still do that but I think I want to steal the Facebook thankful posts and do something like that here only diabetes related.

Thankful Day 1
I am thankful for my parents.

Obviously my parents raised me and have taken care of me through out the years, but specifically my parents did a great job raising me as a diabetic. They had training. My sister was diagnosed with diabetes when she was 13 years old, right before I was born. This is a thankful post where I could go on and on, but its late and words could never describe how much my parents have done for me over the years. Additionally, my parents support is on going; my mom accompanied me tonight to our local ADA's annual meeting. She's always there for me.

Thank you mom and dad. 

Parents get pump tattoos to support their diabetic son!
 
My parents would never do this because they both hate tattoos!
But this diabetic kid sure does have an awesome mom and dad,
reminds me of my awesome mom and dad. :)
