Let me just sum up her first week of school in the words she used when she came home the first day “it was the best first day of school EVER” and that is how she continues to feel about the subject. I have had exactly one phone call from her since school began and that is wonderful!
Oh…wait…did I mention that Nikki’s new, wonderful school nurse has diabetes and wears an insulin pump? Did I mention (I think I have) that one of her closest friends is on her ‘team’ and in at least one of her classes AND she also as T1. Now hang on, that’s not all! She’s made another new friend who is in a couple of her classes and…you guessed it…she has T1! It’s like a mini diabetes camp every day. So things in that area are just great (knock on wood). It also helps that she’s been blessed with great teacher’s again this year.
We’ve had pretty consistent blood sugars in the mid to high 100’s except at night when they seem to be running higher. I’ll be adjusting her nighttime basal this evening and we’ll see how that helps.
After so much sad news lately, it’s awesome to think and share the wonderful things going on! We are continuing with our fundraising efforts - the walk is only 3 weeks away! THANK YOU to those of you who have already donated to our team, you are a blessing to millions of people!
