Well I did it again I had another low at 5:00 AM
this morning. I woke up sweating like<br
sunshine. I was so weak that Jodi had to help pull me up to
a<br
to hold the glass of orange<br
drink. My BS was 139 at bedtime and I took my normal<br
10 units of insulin. This is 3 out of the last 4
days. She was in such a hurry<br
that we didn’t take a reading which we know is a<br
mistake. It was 174 at breakfast. Obviously we over did
the correction<br
come up with as a cause is that this past<br
have been more active than normal with all of our
company and<br
this right after we moved back to<br

He got to know them when we worked for Jerry<br
the boy’s camp. My blood sugars have been great all
day today. For it<br
did and go as low as it did after being 265<br
Thursday night some of the high may have been caused by
the excitement<br

on our diveway in their travel trailer) Jodi and I
spent the day<br

very much here just getting on with end of school activities 26th is our last
working day

EVERYBODY GONE HOME????

JOHN.

JOHN: I don’t know how to answer your question
about the house. It’t kind of like pushing over a row
of dominos. One thing you do demands another, and
then another, and then another. We always wanted to
fix up a big old house. Believe me we have that itch
thouroughly scratched now. If we ever get it done it will be
real nice. It has 2700 square feet of living space.
The rooms are all large, the living room is 20 by 40
with a fireplace clear across one end. We can have all
of our kids here at one time and it is a little
crowded but not terribly so. When we are all together
there are 19 of us. Well with the exception of the
situation with Beth and<br
speeding to normal for the Shaws. Beth is<br
slownly getting stronger and we are all anxiously waiting

i applaud everyone watching their diets
carefully. i did it for a couple of years and then said the
hell w/ it! it was causing me too much stress and
anxiety to watch everything i put in my mouth. the
dietician told me i could eat whatever i wanted as long as
it’s in moderation. so that’s what i’ve been doing
except i don’t eat certain foods which up my sugars,
like fruit, fruit juices, syrups, reg. pop, and any
other culprit. spiking from sweets doesn’t scare me as
much as the foods which cause high sugars for long
term. but that’s just me, laura
