And you look them in the eyes and wonder, is anyone in there? With that frozen half-smile on your face. And the sudden rages. Walking half in this world, and half in shadow. Time tempers it... but doesn't erase it. I'm glad for my two, since, as well.

Thank you! My doc dismissed sugar in my labs and waited for another test. I questioned it. The lab said it was fine. My doctor was near my bed when I woke crying. My husband was packing to fly me off the island to a military hospital in Anchorage, I remained there for three weeks. I was kicked off the island. The Navy would not allow me to go back-a new diabetic 1500 miles from the coastline of Alaska. They sent me back to Maine. All my labs went missing and I couldn't even see to fly home my vision had not returned. I was going to sue the Navy...lots of injustice in my story~Ellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070952447277684613noreply@blogger.com
