I wanted to get my diabetes under control. I lost my mother to diabetes and a stroke.

I'm always afraid if I slack up or give in, I'll get lazy.

The treadmill is a lot harder on your joints. It's kind of boring, too, unless there's a TV program you like.

As a mother, you are never ready for something like this. It is hard to let that control go and you just have to be supportive. Everyone is proud of him and we all miss him here at home,

It begins with the growing realization that another ? the mother ? has it, she has control over it, and she's not you.
