Hey guys, sorry if my high-powered posts aren't up to par today. I got some bad news this morning.
At about 3:40 this morning, my mom texted me that my brother was in the hospital peeing ketones and in the ICU for it. He's a type 1 diabetic and ketones are chemicals that build up in your bloodstream when your blood sugur is out of control. As in five to six times its normal level. For a diabetic this is very bed and can result in people being dead. It's a four hour drive to where he is and my parents bolted out the door and didn't wake me up for it. I got the text at about 5 and I was expected to fall back asleep. That eventually happened but not before calling my mom twice and getting no answer. They were racing down the highway to see him. She got a hold of me about 5:30 and said they were in the ICU and they would be there for the next few days. Apparently he's had a cold and hasn't dealt with it since he's an idiot Sophomore in College. Now he's got an infection and a potentially leathal blood glucose level. Mom sad the docs said he's gonna be okay but there's a lot that can go wrong in the next few days and I'm here alone having the privilage to worry about it.
Sorry about unloading on here. I'm here alone, I have little information and I needed to tell someone.
