My Wonderful Christmas Present is I am Still Alive

Hello to all!
My gift for Christmas is that I did not die, and I am so very thankful for that. I know in my heart my heavenly father must have been guiding, watching over me. As many of you might know I have been really ill off and on, battling my health. Well last week I got a call from my doctor telling me to get into the ER right now! my blood sugar was 720, yes 720!
Some how I was able to drive to the ER and not die on the way as it was put to me many times over this past week. Once in the hospital the doctors decided to send me to OHSU because some of my blood tests were stating damage was occurring to my heart and they felt it best to send me to Portland. I really feel OHSU saved my life!
My coronary angiography was okay and I had a doctor working on me that looked just like George Clooney.
I was amazed how many nurses and doctors let me know that with my sugar level, I broke the record which I would to say is not a record I want to break. Many of the doctors and nurses were amazed that I drove myself to the hospital, again lucky that I did not die on the way.
I am happy to say so far no damage to the heart but I have Hypertensive Urgency, DM type 2 uncontrolled, morbid obesity, Dyslipidemia, unstable Angina.
I have put my stores on vacation mode for a little while, as I just got back home and I have a very long road ahead of me, I will try to reopen them maybe next month and I am not sewing or doing any projects right now, I will try and blog next month but for now I need to try and get some things under control such as the sugar levels and the blood pressure, because I don't want to die, I want to see my son and daughter and see that grand baby that is coming. I will talk with you all next month!
