[QUOTE="suzyqet, post: 378912, member: 69262"] Well, today went better than expected. We even went to a friends house for a BBQ this afternoon and he was a very brave boy. In fact, he loved showing his friends his pin prick marks he has on his legs. lol. apparently they are in the shape of Mickey Mouse?? :wink: lol He has cottoned on to the fact he has glucose sweets in his hypo kit though. I explained to him what it was for etc. anyway, about 30 minutes later he said he was feelling really poorly and wanted me to check his blood sugar, which I did (10.9) but got really upset because it wasnt below 4. lol. :? Night time injection wasnt too bad, I did have to pin him down in the end (which I hate doing) but we managed it with no help. So that is 3 out of 4 injections we managed today without needing an extra pair of hands. He is doing so well bless him. When we got to our friends house, the first thing he told them was that he isnt allowed to run around to much for the next month. lol. He is also not allowed to bounce on the trampoline, so what did he do? Sat in the middle while the others bounced round him. He thought that was rather amusing. All in all though, a better day than i had thought it would be. And, like they say, it can only get better. :) [/QUOTE]
