I’ve mentioned before that Ashley is a Type 1 diabetic. When someone you love lives with a disease like diabetes, you tend to worry. And even after all these years of managing it, it’s not always easy for her to keep her sugars regulated.
There are so many factors that go into keeping blood sugars balanced. What she eats, how much she sleeps, if she goes for a run – all of those can send numbers up or down. And those are just the things she has some control over. If she happens to get sick – something she really can’t plan for – then it can get a little scary. In the last few years, there have been at least 2-3 trips to the emergency room each year that I can remember.
