(With apologies to Brian, the original poster of this discussion, for turning it towards Patty). If he's going away for a few days, and assuming he and his friend have separate hotel rooms, perhaps he'd be willing to set his alarm and get up in the middle of the night for a BG test. I feel like he's not that comfortable with his diabetes even around you, his wife, but by himself he might be willing to do it, knowing he won't distract anybody and won't have to feel ashamed or embarrassed if things aren't ideal. I hope so.
