Every been called at work because your son needed a new battery? Such is the life of a diabetic family using an insulin pump... Seems kind of strange to have to leave work to go change a battery....Seems like something that could wait until later...but it can't.
Now normally the school nurse would have replaced it, but for some reason they couldn't get the compartment opened. So my husband had to leave work to go and replace it.
Things like this make life seem weird. Just not really normal.

If Luke Skywalker Had Diabetes
The following blog post on dlife is the most hilarious thing I have read in a long time. Diabetes isn't really a funny disease (I'm not sure if there is a funny disease out there) but this post really brought some humor into it!

Worry
Last night was a worry night. When I checked Nathan's blood sugar at about 12:15 a.m. he was 53. I didn't believe it, so I tested again. This time I got a Low reading. Which meant his blood sugar was too low to read on his meter. I'm a lucky mom. Nathan woke up, drank 2 juices and his blood sugars were back to normal the rest of the night. I'm lucky because I don't have to worry too much.
