Granny don't you agree the sickness came by his agreement with and support of witchcraft forced on our children ? You should be on your knees with KJV asking for your own salvation in Jesus name.

Wow. Children children children. I am starting to feel old and I am not THAT old. This is a MEDICAL site, not a religious site. It is NOT the perview of any faith, political view, age, sex, race - MEDICAL. Sorry, nobody has the right to try to exclude anyone here. And nobody should be giving God a bad name by spewing hate and intolerance in it. bad form kids. On Richard Harris - he wasn't "struck dead" the man was VERY OLD, in his 70s and very sick for a very long time.

I am 'them'..one of the other ones. Not a christian, I still have a value system...and diabetes. How dare you judge me by your lame idea of what constitutes a 'spiritual' human being? And tell me not to come to a site, where everyone has diabetes? Does that not speak for itself? PERHAPS I may be MORE spiritual? There are others you know..but we seldom raise our heads, or you christians may chop them off. Like you did in the old days. I respect differences. We all have them. But your laws are not mine. Anyone else feel this way, or are you all christians?

How about using Splenda instead of the sugar?

3 pkgs sugar? 12gm sucrose. Not good, almost the carbs of one slice white bread. Although, even this can be used if diabetes is well-controlled.

Grannypj: Good post as always. Funny that one ? said another post was not his/hers. Without a name, we cannot know. BTW, the doc who thinks a bg of 200-300 is real. I must question the competence of that individual. Someone here said bg>180 produces damage to the body. I have seen 140 used as the max figure. I was NOT attacking the medical community as in the past. It still must be said, however, that manufacturer "percs" will often affect sound judgment. CF. Glucerna, an inferior product. It is easy to find much better products out there, but Abbott sends out printed sales pitches. So guess what is recommended! I know of one product that will only require one or two fruit servings with it. It is not that objective out there! 'nough said!

I remember all my life Raining down as cold as ice Shadows of a man A face through a window Cryin in the night The night goes into morning Just another day Happy people pass my way Looking in their eyes I see a memory I never realized How happy you made me Oh, Mandy Well you came and you gave without taking But I sent you away Oh, Mandy Well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking And I need you today Oh, Mandy I'm standing on the edge of time I've walked away when love was mine Caught up in a world of uphill climbs The tears are in my mind And nothing is rhyming (Chorus again) Yesterday's a dream I face the morning Crying on the breeze The pain is calling (Chorus again)

To Mr/Ms 13:18:17 nicely detailed post but you really are on the wrong website. To: Chat Police - thankyou for acknowledging that we all have typos To Squats: someone should apologize to you for thinking that I am you. Unless you want to be 54 and have 12 neat people call you Grandma. two little problems on this 'chat' - first of all, it isn't a chat it is a message board; secondly those who operate it must be doing research in psych or sociology or both because they do not require registration which cuts down on flamers. There is a lot of relational study fodder here. Medical sites frequently require an actual name and a verifiable email before allowing participation. Nonetheless, I have gotten a lot of really honest information here that isn't available on other diabetic sites, particularly those monitored by professionals who are pushing whichever current fad insulin or equipment is in vogue. The people here may be difficult but they are, for the most part, real. And they actually care about each other.

On Thu Oct 24 13:18:17 2002 NO HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!! (Good grief, please keep them home this year!!!!!) said:
Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes." Song of Solomon 2:15 Foxes sometime in search of food would enter into the grape orchards and devour the grapes and spoil the crop. However, the little foxes were too small to reach the grape bunches so they would chew on the vines and it would kill the whole vine. Instead of the farmer just losing his crop, he would lose his vine which was more disastrous. Spiritually some things we do or allow, that we might think is little or insignificant, can also be disastrous for us. Some may consider celebrating Halloween as only a little compromise. However, it is the "little foxes" that spoil the vines and this little compromise can open the door to other evils. Many Christians do not realize that certain traditions that are celebrated in the world have evil origins. Just because our society partakes in certain activities does not make them acceptable for Christians. We must look to Christ and His Word to see if the traditions of this world are good or evil. Mark 7:13: "Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye." One very evil tradition is the celebration of Halloween. No Christian should partake in the activities of this holiday, nor should they allow their children to do so. We can discern the evil of this day by taking a look at the festivities that are associated with its celebration. Children are dressed as witches, goblins, ghosts, little devils and fortune tellers. All these are representatives of Satan's kingdom. Games played at carnivals promote fear in children as they are ushered through spook houses and horror rooms. Skeletons, black cats and bats represent death and darkness. No carnival is complete without the gypsy who tells fortunes. Satan has gained man's approval to celebrate his day by simply making it a tradition that seems like a fun day. The opposite is true, however, as more damage and harm are done on this day each year than any other holiday. Children are taught to go door to door chanting "trick or treat." It is unchristian to demand a gift under threat of playing some trick. Police are on the alert for juvenile vandalism and caution parents to be watchful. Because so many of us have grown up celebrating Halloween, and seemingly did not experience any negative effects, some feel that not celebrating Halloween at all is an extreme measure. However, we would encourage you to pray about this. Is any holiday that glorifies death and darkness (even in fun) a proper thing for a Christian to do since we have been called out of darkness into His marvelous light? 1 Peter 2:9: "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light." Whether we feel that we have been really hurt by celebrating Halloween or not, is only part of the issue. How does God feel to see His people making light of demons and witchcraft? Shouldn't we be thinking about how to honor Him and show our love to Him? Where do our loyalties lie? Most Satanists celebrate this as their high holy day and even offer human sacrifices to the devil. Until recently, most Christians have not questioned this traditional celebration, but rather have gone along with it by even bringing Halloween parties into the church. The earliest Halloween celebrations were not held by the early church, but the Druids in honor of Samhain, the "lord of the dead", and his demons, whose festival fell on November 1. Halloween actually means "holy or hallowed evening." According to the Roman calendar in which days began at midnight, the evening of October 31 was the eve before the hallowed day; hence Halloween or All Soul's Eve was kept throughout the ancient pagan world. All Hallows Eve, because it is the day before All Hallows' or All Saints' day, was a holy day in the Roman Catholic Church, Episcopal Church, the Church of England and the Greek Orthodox Church. This festival honors all martyrs, known and unknown, who have died for the church. During the time of Constantine, these two holidays were merged in an attempt to Christianize the heathen. The church could not prevent these heathen practices, so they thought "taming'" them would be the answer. They were, of course, not to worship their gods on the church's "All Saint's day." However, as it is with all compromises, soon the evil overrode the good, and hence we still honor these heathen practices by celebrating Halloween. Parents have a responsibility not to allow their children to be exposed to these evil celebrations. What might seem to some as innocent children's games is a "little fox" that can open the door to satanic influence and even demon possession in some cases. Children can be tormented with a spirit of fear that can come through this involvement that stays with them throughout their lives. It also introduces children to witchcraft, making it easier for them to become involved in cults and occultic activities. When children are taught it is alright to play with the things of darkness, it does not give them the repulsion and resistance that they need to stand against greater Satanic involvement. When the things of Satan are taken lightly, as games and fun, it sets our children up to accept evil rather than to resist it. This "little fox" is not only spreading evil to children but has been a curse for the church and our nation as well. As Christians, we should spread the word to others about the evil tradition of Halloween. Ephesians 5:6-12: "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. 7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them. 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: 9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. 11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. 12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret."

I find that most of my doctors consider 90-120 to be the best range. My last doctor said 150 was my high point. That with the pump, when I was over 150 to bolus one (1) unit of insulin in to cover each 50 over 150. Has worked pretty good for me.

BTW, 18:54:37 was not my post!
