At first, ok, I can handle this..then we get behind on the rent 2 months (going on 3), owe the electricity, going to get my phone cut off, my internet, have to get her medical supplies (even if we have excellent health insurance I still can barely scrape together 40 dollars for test strips), running out of food (and I have to get the healthiest kind possible and we all know that costs $$$$), need clothes, haircuts, u name it, we need it. She pisses the bed constantly even when I get her up 5 TIMES to go to the bathroom and I don’t even wanna go into the pain and hell it is to do laundry on NO budget!!

I swear, if my Son (2) has it I am soooo out the door, I’m about 2 go now and take him with me, that or just muster up enuff courage to KILL myself!!! I can’t take this effing garbage, anymore!!!!

And, no, according to Department of Children and Families my baby Daddy makes 180% too much!! HA freaking ha!! We have 2 pay 300/mo. for health insurance and it’s needed! EFF BUSH!!

Yesterday I was sent a new meter. I thought my old one wasn’t working well,but i just wasn’t inserting the strip all the way in. Now I have 2 meters. My thing is I was testing my blood sugar on the new one but its reading low,this morning 70 on the new on the old 123. I tested my husbands on the new and old in the middle of the day his was a 68 on the new and 125 on the old. Could something be wrong with the new one they sent. They told me to perform the gluclose test on them both and they both seem to be working but I’m getting to different results. Did any one ever had this problem….The thing is I’m not a diabetic I just get a eye on it …
