I am glad you were able to see your son and even more glad to hear you have plans to see him again soon. I hope with all my heart you really gain some momentum from such a positive thing! Your son is so young and you will need to take the lead on moving his thoughts away to your W and putting all the focus on the R you share with him.

Were you able to get the at home glucose testing kit? It would be very beneficial to you (IMO of course) to log your daily tests for both your own knowledge and for your dr's. Diabetes isn't the only reason blood sugar runs high.

Is there any way your eye surgeon can advocate on your behalf to the state to move the process along? I just did a web search on "patient advocacy for disabled persons in Texas" and found tons of resources. Not sure where you live exactly but you might try a similar search so you have more avenues to explore.
