Some good news. This is hyper-personal but it's the only good news I can think of at the moment.

In September I was diagnosed as type II diabetic.

In my latest follow up with my doctor my blood glucose (A1C) was down into the "not diabetic" range. Meaning that I still need to be careful, but what I've been doing is working and if I stay on this course I'm unlikely to see any negative side effects.
