[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 586772, member: 17713"] Gosh... You are going through a tough time as a parent of diabetic child.... If these levels are consistent and she is being negligent towards her bolusing, it may be that to overcome this that she could raise the basals. What pump is your daughter using? The only reason I ask is that the accuchek pump has a remote control and is far less (in my opinion) hassle for a child to think about. All she has to do is get the fully functioning remote control out, not needing to take the pump off at all. You are not alone... Many parents (i would say the vast majority of them) will have probs of some sort with their child managing their diabetes... Is your daughter taking her blood tests regularly and correcting them with a bolus? Others will be along to offer advice.. Unfortunately, I am a "mature" pump user, but can remember very clearly the difficult period of time I went through... Loving life [/QUOTE]
