Hubby's home!

Finally, after a long week my hubby is home from the hospital. He was one sick puppy. Lesson learned........visit your doctor on a regular basis. Matt was anti-doctor and avoided them at all cost. Final diagnosis is type 1 diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. His overall cholesterol was over 700 and his triglycerides 7130. They figured he has been walking around for at least 3 months with blood sugars averaging around 250. He finally ate his first meal today and did well with it. They sent him home tonight around 5 pm. It is so nice to have him home. He will have to take another week to recuperate. Our family is in for an overall lifestyle change, but are definitely here for him. Well....time for his meds. Thanks for all the prayers! We are so thankful!

Please Pray for Hubby

I am calling it a night! It has been a long 2 days and I've had a total of 2 hours sleep in the past 30 or so hours. Hubby is in the hospital. He has a lot going on, but most alarming are his triglyceride levels. 7,000! And no that is not a typo.....not 700....yes...7,000. He is also showing signs of possible diabetes and all of this is causing his pancreas to go into a state of shock so the doctors think. I'm not so sure they really know. He is on a no food or water diet for 2-3 days. He is in a lot pain so anyone who believes in prayer.....please pray.
