According to conventional wisdom, diabetes is an irreversible condition that can only be managed, never cured. Praise God! My numbers are coming down! Back in December, even after losing 35 pounds, my A1C was a frightening 12.5. In May, after the stroke, I was 10.3 (this was with insulin). Recently, I have been titrating down the amount of insulin and introducing intermittent fasting. So far, the fasts have only been 18-24 hours, but I just finished one that lasted over 48 hours. My last A1C blood test has me at 9! My target is of course, below 6. Still more work to go!
Thank you so much for your prayers. Please keep them up! We need them.

P.S., Please continue praying for the pain in my shoulders. It is disturbing my sleep.
