Life With Type 2 Diabetes
Mar
20

I was asked to help out in a organization I belong to with assisting on their board more. I was so glad I was asked to help by the CEO and founder. By her showing her trust in me, helps with my self esteem.

I do have a problem with my self esteem. I don’t always think the best of myself. In someways about my daughter, I feel I have failed as a mother. Part of me knows that is not true. My emotions have been yo-yoing  back and forth for the past 24 hours.

Have had to take 2 shots of Novolog of 6 units so far today to keep my blood sugar in control better. I need to feel in control of something in my life.

So I am trying to stay busy today helping others and getting a few things done on my list. This will help to take my mind off of my home and family life.

    First, congratulations Shirley!

    Secondly - do you really think it’s a question of self esteem? Or more a matter of questioning what you do and how you grow; more and better than others?

    @ Connie: Thanks so much for your kind words. Ah, the never ending to-do list. Making some progress, but that darn list keeps growing.:)

    @Frank: Thank you. When I doubt myself, I don’t feel I am worthy of stepping in and helping in a large way. By her contacting me and asking to help out, I have earned her trust makes me feel better inside. So I guess in a way, it helps my self-esteem. I have also checked out both your website and blog. Tell Ada hi from me.
