Late night as Hannah was REALLY hoping her blood sugar number would come downenough to eat something last night. She finally went to sleep just before midnight blood draw, having come to grips with the fact she wasn't getting a bite of anything :)
Overnight they starting introducing sugar water, so her blood spiked again. Probably good as Hannah would've lost it to know her numbers went back up from 111 to 190. She did get some ice chips -- much welcomed. Savored, in fact. 5am read had her back down to 101. 100is the magic number. But 101 is close enough for juice at 6 am and there was major joy at that news and then back to sleep. Actual cheers when juice came in the form of a popsicle.
Food at 8ish wa likely the most appreciated food ever. Game plan for today: get the blood sugar number lower. Get some food. Keep the number controlled. Hopefully at some point today we will move out ofthe PICU. Going to be a pretty full day. Diabetes educator is going to land and then it's going to get hard core. Mostly for me then for her later I think. We've got to get her off the insulin drip and then she willstart learning to and managing her own insulin.
All in all good and getting better.
