I have been surprised about the constant surveillance that has been required of me. I have been a diabetic for most of my life, a long time.

I was constantly tired and peeing so much I would tap fire hydrants at a construction site to fill up water jugs. I also lost about 40 lbs in a month.

Of all the symptoms I was having constant urination surprised me the most. Second was lack of energy.

My senior year in high school. I was the editor of the newspaper. I sold the paper to each classroom. I had to urinate after each pitch. If u want to know more about my early years of diabetes—you can order my book it’s on Amazon: it’s free: The Sweet & Sour Disease.
