Today I went for a walk in the park, hoping to enjoy a relaxing day taking advantage of the sun.
Before leaving home, I made sure to wear my insulin, glucose meter, and some snacks just in case.It is always better to be prepared, since you never know when you can have a decrease in glucose.
While walking through the park, I ran into a kiosk that sold my favorite cookies.I could not resist and bought one, thinking that I would eat it later if my glucose went down.I kept it in my backpack and followed my path.
Suddenly, I began to feel a little dizzy and weak, I checked my blood sugar level and realized that I was actually going down.I decided that it was the perfect time to enjoy my delicious cookie.
When looking for the cookie in my backpack, I realized that I had broken in pieces.It seemed that my backpack had been attacked by an army crushing cookie.I took the pieces of cookie and started to eat them.
While enjoying my snack, I realized that a group of people watched me curious.
I realized that it looked like a small child, sitting in a park bank, eating cookie remains.
I could not help laughing at the situation and, seeing my laugh, the people around me also began to laugh.
When I recovered I continued with my walk in the park.
I learned that, even in difficult situations, a little humor can make life much more bearable, even when it comes to dealing with type 1 diabetes!
