No cake? What...

So HB, today of all days has been to the Dr's.

"Well, Mr. HB you have a strong heart and lungs. Regretfully, your glucose is too high and we need you to follow this strict no sugar regimen for the next three months and we will tell you then if you have diabetes. " Says the doc.

But its your birthday!!!! - I wail.

What about cake!?! - I cry.

You had ice cream yesterday. Pasta last night. Whaddya mean you can't have cake!?! - I beg.

Then the dreaded A word emerged from HB's lips . Atkins.

You mean my little vacation of girlie drinks and black beans and rice is....Sniff..OVER?!? - I whimper.

I know he's concerned about his health. I as a doting GF will do what I have to, because it is right.

But - I think you should be able to have cake on your birthday - without the thoughts of a diabetic coma hovering over you!!!

Stupid Doctor!
