Hey there! Because you are getting out of the danger zone with the DKA, and because your blood sugars are coming down and there are possible dose changes in your future, I wanted to add an extra way you can monitor for signs of DKA. Weekly weights tracked on your spreadsheet will help identify weight loss issues early, and then you can increase the food and insulin if necessary to help maintain the weight. This can prevent that recovery/relapse cycle that was happening to you.
 
You can use a luggage scale too and something like a towel and poke holes in the corners to use as a lift. Then simply subtract the weight of the towel.
 
Interesting. Luggage scale. Never seen one. Lol. I don't think he would go for that though. I can't even burrito him at all to do anything. I will find a baby scale. Someone probably has one in their closet they never use anymore. He will learn to sit still on it.

He looks good today. Was watching squirrels in between the rain.

He is eating well. Took fluids well.
Hope he stays steady this week. I have a wake n funeral end of week plus my birthday.
