UPDATE: Our Daughter and Amazing Twitter Community

Many of you know that our daughter, Heather, was hospitalized yesterday for extremely high blood sugar levels - 600+ readings. She is a Type 2 Diabetic who struggles to keep her blood sugar in check.

A brief update as we are heading out to the hospital now: Heather was severely dehydrated and hard increased levels of acid in her body because of her kidneys not functioning well (a vicious circle with diabetes).

She has received IV Insulin and fluids all night, but her sugar levels are still hovering at 360 this morning. Her doctors are running more tests to determine why her levels are not coming down to acceptable levels.

We should find out more this morning.

Let me give a note of praise and thanks to our wonderful Twitter community of friends and followers. @ReikiAwakening alerted the twitterstream of what was going on and we received a flood of well wishes, prayers, thoughts and energy. Thank you. Thank You. THANK YOU!

I am often awestruck by the amazing people I meet on Twitter. The generosity, caring and love we felt last night is a shining example of what Twitter is all about – Relationships.

I’m blessed and thankful.

Thank you for indulging me with this personal post.

You are truly appreciated!
