Type 1 Diabetic Diagnosed Novermber 2010

William was diagnosed in November 2010 with Type 1 diabetes. The official diagnosis and first parent supply training day was the day before Thanksgiving. We spend all of Wednesday at Helen Devos Childrens Hospital learning how to count carbs, give shots, and check blood sugar levels. Whew....then we were sent on our way with a bunch of stuff and they said good luck, we'll see you in three months, and if you have any questions call us :)

WHAT???? OMG...... Here we go...

3 mo check

DR visit update. A1C= 6.9! Fantastic Diabetes care! Dad takes most of the credit as mom has been very busy with school and doesn't hear the 2am alarm clock go off to check BG. He has consistent dusk phenomenom where his BG climbs rapidly as soon as he goes to sleep. wierd... We are looking forward to his long term outcome, and his 2am checks are exhausting, but worth it because hopefully he will be able to keep his eyes, feet, and kidneys long term (80's)... He is really looking forward to his 5th Bday... Love HIM :) We participated with our first Step out and Walk to cure diabetes campaign. Will had lots of fun, especially the first JCI one where he got to pet lots of dogs....
Daddy, I REALLY REALLY WANT A DOGGY!
