And its all totally new to her and you. I dont think Ryan would have taken it so well if he wasnt familiar with it already. A few times when he was 2 and 3 we have checked his blood sugar when he seemed to be drinking a lot but he was always ok. So he had his finger pricked a few times so it wasnt something that was a issue for him really. Ahhh yeah...its hard to get around really isnt it. Because if she has to go in sept you are going to have to do it eventually. Do you feel happy the staff know what they are to do etc? We had a meeting with Ryans diabetic nurse and teachers so i was there when they were trained. And i went down for the first week to watch them do his injection so i was happy to leave him. They ring me if they ever have a question though they are fab. But once he moves up to year 1 im going to have to put my trust in other teachers who i dont know. I found that really hard...trusting someone else to set his dose and inject him...Ohhh so she was quite unwell then <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /> bless her. Seems like she pulled round quite quick though. The drip isnt nice for anyone never mind a 2yr old im not surprised shes been overwhelmed. Ryan had 0.2 ketones when he was admitted and he was in 5 days. But they didnt start insulin until the second day. He thought the hospital was great because he was well in himself. Always down the play room. He asks to go back!! I try to explain hes lucky he was so well and he doesnt want to go back because he wouldnt be able to play he would be poorly. He doesnt really understand...So today Ryan had 2 wheetabix for breakfast with 0.5 units and 3 and a half hours later before dinner he was 3.2. No idea what is going on. Do you feel like you are getting back on track with Zaras bloods? Ryan had a fab time at the fun day by the way. And so far so good with the pizza...i was nervous with him running riot and the hypo before dinner though so i checked him every hour (i hate doing that because i dont want to make his little fingers sore) but needs must..xxx</blockquote>
