As I have posted before my daughter is type 1 diabetic and has dealt with an eating disorder
diabulimia for pretty much the last 10 years. Diabulimia is a disorder where you withhold insulin to loose weight. It has been 10 years of hell to put it mildly. I have cried and prayed and cried and prayed. When she was having terrible pain from neuropathy, (painful nerve pain). I felt guilty even sleeping when I knew she couldn't. It is horrible to watch someone you love suffer, It is almost unbearable.
She has a blog now here is the link if you would like to read about her journey.
Steph's Blog
She is also in a support group on Facebook that has really helped her.
I know that the Lord has a plan for her life and that she will come out on top and be able to
help others going through this same disorder.
And finally she has health insurance, she is in the process of getting an insulin pump, I am so excited. I pray that she likes it and it will help with the low blood sugars and keep her blood sugars more regulated. I constantly worry about her having low blood sugars. I hate diabetics.
I thank the Lord for how far he has brought her and know he has greater plans for her life.
Her husband and children need her so bad as well as me her mamma.
I appreciate all of your prayers for her.

I know everyone who is a diabetic is different, but my good friend has been living with a pump for 10 years now.....lots of trial and error and upgrades but she is doing so well with it. I pray that Stephanie will receive the same or better results when she gets hers!
Hugs and prayers as always,
Sheila
I really pray that Steph feels better soon. I know it's hard to deal with those typen of things. It must be very painful for you. Still, I hope you know that everyone here got your back 100%! We are all hoping for Steph's recovery. Hang in there, Lecia! All the best!
