When grocery shopping: after walking by the bakery area with free cookie samples, Guin asked for broccoli! Haha, it made other shoppers smile too

 

NOW

 

Recently, Adelaide excitedly asked for fresh broccoli. Adding that she'd like for me to leave it for her to enjoy raw. It was purchased and eaten (only a bit of thick stalk discarded). M & A strongly prefer raw veggies over cooked. A likes green leafy salads without dressing while M likes dressing. Though frozen peas seemed acceptable, both frozen or warmed through with salt and butter. G really likes both leafy salads with dressing, and liquid salad (gazpacho). She also enjoys a variety of cooked veggies. She's revisiting an old favorite - green beans! Particularly canned Italian green beans. And E eats both cooked and raw veggies. Salad with dressing a particular favorite. "Dressing" - Vinegar and Oil mixtures. (G, M, E also eat Ranch just for dipping. LOL, but only homemade or from certain restaurants.)

 

 

Then & Now - Momma's health

"I have to watch my blood sugar carefully! And now, I have yet another reason to be on top of this: Spacial thinking and sense of direction does NOT exist when I'm sugar crashing which has lead to getting lost while driving"

comment from me:

...snacks

"YES, that and never skip breakfast!"

...be careful

...take care

...yikes

...same here

...take it easy

"thanks all! It's just been a while since I had a symptom beyond shakiness, so I'm taking this 'lost' business seriously. And the heat/sun doesn't help... Shifting my activities and grazing throughout the day - getting re-calibrated!"

Then - I thought I knew what to do to keep myself well, even if I didn't always do it.

Now - I have seen doctors and specialists and understand more about these episodes (and more) than I ever imagined. Hoping to put this knowledge to good use! And improve my health and quality of life.
