thanks everyone xx
Cinnamon was in ketoacidosis and her liver enzymes were elevated. We must increase her insulin dosages and recheck in one week. Despite buying food for diabetic dogs limiting treats and constantly monitoring her so she doesn’t eat the cats’ food her diabetes is, again, uncontrolled. I’ve been told & read that it is difficult to manage in dogs.
She's a little 'mental' (let me count the ways).. she's cost me a ton of $ due to her medical issues throughout the years .. but I wouldn't trade her for the world. She's been with me through a lot of life's ups and downs, and I love her to pieces. My old girl is starting to show her age, but she is SO stubborn, so I think she'll be with me for quite a while (at least I hope so). I named her Gabby when I adopted her, because she was so vocal - more than any other cat I've lived with. As she's become older, she's even more vocal - to the point where, if she's awake, she's usually always talking. It's quite funny, really.. and I should probably grab some video sometime soon. Although always friendly, she loathes my camera in her face and will typically growl about it all. I was at a distance for these shots, and she reluctantly cooperated.
Happy Birthday, Gab!
Diabetics beware - as far as photos go, this is as saccharin as they come. Shot in vanDusen Gardens a couple of days ago. The woman was of course added in post.
* I designed this Sugar Bag with insuline dependant diabetics in mind. It has no less than ten (!) pockets inside, to carry along insuline pens, needles, bloodsugar measuring device, lancets and test strips, notebook and pen, tissues, etc.
But then again, you don’t need insuline dependant diabetes to enjoy a bag like this, with this many pockets...
The bag is made out of faux suede and faux leather. It gets its sturdiness from a 3mm thick felt layer between the outside and inside fabric.
* Ik heb deze Sugar Bag (Suiker Tas) ontworpen met insuline-afhankelijke suikerzieken in gedachten. De tas heeft niet minder dan tien (!) binnenzakken, om er insuline pennen, naalden, bloedsuiker meetapparaat, lancetjes en teststrips, notitieboekje en pen, tissues, etc. in mee te nemen.
Maar je hoeft natuurlijk geen insuline afhankelijke diabeet te zijn om van een tas als deze, met zoveel zakken, te genieten.
De tas is gemaakt uit namaak suède en namaak leer. Hij krijgt zijn stevigheid door een 3mm dikke laag vilt tussen de buitenste en de binnenste stof.

. Seizure Prediction – Train pets to be service dogs that already naturally detect handlers seizures and alert them before they occur. (very rare)
. Seizure Response – Train a dog to respond to a seizure while it occurs by holding the handler down, getting help or barking to attract attention.
. Medical Alert – Train dogs for invisible conditions and to alert the handler.
. Diabetic Alert – Train dogs to detect high or low blood sugar levels and alert handler.
. Emotional Support Animal (ESA) – Train basic obedience of pet dogs for therapeutic use in housing.

I've been a diabetic for a couple of years. For this and several other reasons I have regular health checks at my GP and at Homerton and Bart's Hospitals. At a recent visit to Homerton Hospital I was offered the chance to attend cookery lessons for diabetics. I jumped at the chance.
The course is run by Shoreditch Spa and is held in the Community Kitchen, Hoxton Square.
Charlie has lost weight since the diagnosis 4 months ago. Two insulin injections a day for him.

I am diabetic- not severely, not insulin dependent (thank heaven!) BUT- diabetic, nonetheless. I monitor my blood glucose regularly and take meds daily, watch my diet and weight and get as much exercise as I can- and I am hanging on nicely! I have a GREAT medical team too, God bless them;-)
HMM!!!
This little TOOL gets me through my day. As a Type 2 diabetic I need my glucose meter to make sure I stay healthy. A poke (or 3) a day keeps the doctor away!
Thanks in advance for all that have and are stopping by .... I am enjoying looking at your images, but injured tendon in right hand means I'm not supposed to be typing. Shhh ... don't tell my doc!
Hideous street art lookalike advert for a bottle full of diabetic sugar water, .....never mind as there is a group selfie going on at the bus stop !.

Peter's latest piece of work. Not the greatest photo, but that wasn't the point this morning. I needed to record it asap. He is holding a piece of very stylised DNA, and has an insulin pump on his tummy!
Just a spoonful of turbinado sugar. Besides making medicine more palatable, it's healthier for diabetics than refined white sugar because it has essential elements and is sweeter so less is needed.
For Macro Mondays' "Remedy" challenge.
As a diabetic, chocolate or particularly sugar is not good for my blood. That is why I only eat 70% chocolate which is rather bitter. However, I got so used to the flavour that I really enjoy a piece! I definitily have a sweet tooth (although I like savoury too but the more sugar, the better! Which I cannot give in to except for this little sin.)
This is maybe 5 grams of a 25 grams bar. Of course I had to rearrange the pieces a number of times so in the end, I ate them ;-)

Title is a great Elvis Costello album.
Thought you might like to see the little leaflet that is going out to the organisations that have helped Eve to get her Diabetic Alert dog! So many people have been so generous in their help, and Eve is delighted. Once her training is complete, Sandy will be able to give Eve and her mother more peace of mind, and Eve will be able to stay overnight with friends allowing Mum to go back to work, or even, possibly, have a night out!!
I just love finding new tasty treats. I recently discovered this. I'm not Diabetic but I do like the fact that there isn't any refined sugar in this Spread. It is delicious and much better for you than "you know what!"

This stand of Beech has often been photographed by me and every time I am in this small section of my local woods it always remids me of the old Grimm fairy tales. I just imagine theres a big bad wolf behind every tree, a cannibalistic witch somewhere in a cottage that will kill a diabetic from 100 yards and handsome princes and lost princesses wandering all over the place!
Hence the dark edit on this particular image that I feel really adds to that narrative.
I think I have an overactive imagination!
27/52 By some unspoken rule, the "special needs" boarding cats - for instance geriatric or diabetic cats - have become my responsibility (under the doctors' supervision) on the shifts I work. Many cats don't eat for a day or two when they first come to board because they are too nervous. I feel bad they are so nervous but I know they'll be OK. However, diabetic cats MUST eat. As you may be able to tell from this picture, Magic spent his first 24 hours under his towel - NOT eating. I tried every variety of prescription diabetic food we have - wet and dry, pate and "savory selects" in gravy and nothing. I tried tasty junk food and nothing again. I tried slipping his food under his towel with him and still nothing. We were getting to the point where we were going to have to test his blood glucose level to determine if, or how much, insulin to give him. I was just about to walk out the door at the end of my shift and have him be someone else's responsibility when I saw him peek outside his towel and eat some of his Purina DM Savory Selects wet food for about 45 seconds and something huge inside me lightened up. I was so thrilled to see him eating that I, of course, didn't want to open his cage door to get a better picture of him. Any cat who eats while boarding is a happy, little thing.
By the way, if you ever have to board your cat and the vet asks for your permission to give an appetite stimulant if needed - please say yes. For those who feel reluctant to give their cats medication, know that the appetite stimulants used are very safe and the risk of the medication is so much less than the risk to your cat of not eating - especially if it is overweight or diabetic. Often one dose is enough to get a cat to eat and that first meal is all it takes to jump-start their appetite and no further doses are needed.
Well, Griffin's blood glucose levels remain high even after increasing his insulin. We increased it again today, but it only helps a little bit. And here we were worrying about hypoglycemia....he seems to be insulin resistant instead. Let's hope his levels will drop soon.
George Robinson, 1882-1895, was diabetic and, therefore, only lived for 13 years.
This photo in my mother's album is on hard cardboard. He was the only child of the many offspring of my great grandparents to be memorialized with a portrait, the others living relatively long lives.
The photo in the album is quite orange, but I presume the original might have been more sepia like the version that I have posted here -- or probably more sepia. I have also done a straight b&w version, which I like better, but would not be authentic, as far as I know.
I have not posted for a few days because I am not feeling it if you know what I mean. I have no current photos other than hockey to post, and I don't want to bore you folk too much with hockey photos.
I do have hundreds of photos in my Flickr queue, but I prefer to post recent photos. At least this one was scanned and restored recently.
Diabethanol by Indonesian artist Julian Abraham 'Togar'. Diabethanol is constructed from a combination of two words: diabetes and ethanol. Togar's ironic product imagines a renewable energy source made out of diabetic urine.
I did not photograph the Diabethanol machine which consisted of a toilet and a few other gadgets. Instead I concentrated on this poster that depicted the artist posing as three different persons in the Abraham family and benefiting from this new energy source.

The shirt says, "I don't need drugs to get high; a slice of pizza will do" ... and that's the truth!
