Damn Diabetes…

Okay, so this Diabetes thing has totally infiltrated my way of thinking.  I went up to test Shealyn the other night.. as always.  When I put my hand on her hip to roll her over a bit so I could access her pump pouch, her PJ pants felt damp.  “Oh crap!  She must have had an accident.  Eek!  She’s probably high!”  I feel a bit more…. nope, false alarm! Wait, she feels sweaty instead.  “Oh crap!  She sweats a lot when dropping.  She must be low!”  I quickly tested her to find her BG at an ideal 162 (target is 140).  “Oh crap! I just took two weeks off my lifespan from worry in two opposite extremes in a thirty second timespan and she’s just warm from her blanket.”

Ugh…
