A three partner marriage? So it seems ... wife, husband, and Type 1 Brittle Diabetes.
This is a true story of commitment, caring, and triumph over turmoil during a nearly thirty-year marriage that began in 1963. Granted, diabetes care has greatly improved since then.
The vivid recollections of unpredictable hypoglycemic attacks and their consequences are at last revealed in this memoir that "reads like a novel". Not only are the diabetic disruptions noted, but also their impact on urgent care needs, work schedules, job changes, home life and the need to remain aware 24 hours a day. Did they ever find any joy in their lives?
Yes! Self-created - a little cabin in the woods, fishing, hunting, pet dogs, RVing groups, camping trips to Oregon, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and back to Washington State. (Read a little bit about those!) Precious memories of dear friends and breathtaking scenery.
One early memoir reader wrote, "I learned a lot of things I did not know!"
Another commented, "By page three you won't set this book down - you will hang on for a ride you never imagined."
