Quite a Scare!

Well we found out 2 weeks ago that my dad is diabetic. He had no clue that he was. He awoke Sunday morning around 3 am to discomfort in his chest and a feeling of anxiety in his whole body. I told Mom to call the ambulance and have them come take him to the hospital. We thought for a brief moment that he might be having a heart attack. When the paramedics arrived, they checked him out and came to the conclusion that he had diabetes because his blood sugar was almost 500! So, he was taken to the hospital and admitted for 1 and 1/2 days until they could start to get things under control. He is home now and doing a lot better and has even went back to work, but it's scary to know that you can be that way and have no symptoms whatsoever. I'm just thankful that he didn't have a heart attack. We can handle the rest.
