On a more somber mood...

Well, this week has been a rather difficult one for us all here. We have just got Wendy's GTT 3 hour test back (Glucose Test for gestational diabetes). She failed the GTT 1 hour test quite a number of weeks ago. However, we thought it was relatively common to fail that and not fail the 3 hour test. Unfortunately, it was not so in our case. Wendy inexplicably failed her 3 hour test as well. That means, it is going to be a very busy final 2 months for us now. Wendy's need to attend a Diabetes Clinic and potentially, she might have to test her blood up to 7 times a day. In the meantime, she has to cut out all sugar from her diet and cut down on her starch intake (i.e. only a small cup of rice and the rest vegetables).

Thus, it is a mad scramble to change our lifestyles and start buying and cooking less rice and more of the different kinds of vegetables and meats. It might not be a bad thing, at the very least, this is DEFINITELY a heather diet.

Oh well, one more hurdle that we can definitely overcome ... Wish us luck!
