      So very sorry to read about Annie's passing. It doesn't matter how long they are with us, it is never long enough. And when they journey on and leave us they take a piece of our heart with them. Run free sweet Annie💕

        Annie taught us all so much (as did you). Her tolerance and wisdom will be missed. I’m so sorry for your loss.

          Oh Craig. I'm sorry to be over a month behind in catching up and reading this. As Natalie said, Annie must hold some kind of record for the length of time she had diabetes and her age is a testament to your love and care. Sending you warm thoughts and well wishes as I know the sadness and hole she leaves is long lasting.

            Since I’ve been diagnosed as a type-2 I’ve been able to make use of Annie’s ReliOn Prime meter. Thankfully, not on insulin yet.

            Annie was an 18 pound Lhasa Apso that crossed the rainbow bridge on 10-5-17. She was nearly 17 years old and diabetic for 9½ years.

              No doubt, Annie's watching you poke yourself with a big grin on her face.

              Many moons ago when I was working out at a gym 4 - 5 mornings a week, met a guy who was dx'd as Type ll. He weighed ~250# and was on some oral meds for his diabetes. We both worked out very early and began to work out together , ... spotting each other in the free weight area, etc.

              Over the course of about a year he lost about 50# and really firmed up. ... Bottom Line: his blood sugar returned to normal levels and he was off all meds, etc. He got there just by losing excess weight and watching what he was eating.

              Good luck with your situation.

                  I still check-in and read posts from time to time😁. No plan to adopt another pup at this time, but I do stop and say “hi” to the neighborhood pups when out for my walks.

                  I am a member of a human type-2 Diabetes forum and the knowledge from this forum has been very helpful. Btw, my A1c is currently 5.9, which is almost back to pre-diabetic levels.
