Good Morning World! Welcome to our home! IT'S RAINING!!! IT'S 70 DEGREES! Yesterday.....KT/Levemir Discussion
KT
AMBG 359
No 'squish' dose this morning - we're counting off the 3 days with no insulin again. I shouldn't have given that 'squish' yesterday morning..
He's feeling wonderful and eating everything in sight this morning! He's eaten a whole can of FFeast, 3/4ths big can of Beef/Liver, 2 big spoonfuls of dog food and is now in there cleaning up the scraps that everyone else left. His runny poo cleared up, this morning's just curled the wallpaper....phew! FYI - we test for ketones daily after Dakota's ketonic episode - that pounded the CRITICAL importance of that into my head! If I hadn't tested for ketones when I did with him, he would have gone into DKA. I'm posting this as a reminder to me:
DAKOTA
AMPS 429
This is another ugly AMPS but it does have food in it - he cleaned up last night's foods about half an hour before we got up. He seems to be feeling just a bit better this morning but we'll see where the day goes. His eye is still very leaky. I'm thinking, again, he doesn't really NEED a dose of 1.5 as the more I increase, the higher the numbers get again. I test him for ketones every time he visits the lb....I NEVER want to go thru ketones again!
We had another break-thru day with JohnnyPuppy yesterday...he's the 'checked out' puppy mill little doggie. He's trying SO SO hard to keep his switch flipped to ON. For the first time since we finally caught them the end of June, he relaxed his tail and raised it a few inches! It tucked back quickly but that's the first 'tail' acknowledgement of the 'good' world he's now in. He's trying even harder to keep his head up and chest out instead of plastering himself to the floor. You can see the struggle - he gets scared, the head starts down, legs start to buckle but he meets my eyes, forces his head back up and relaxes his legs again. 'Junior', the other one, wanted to run and play this morning - grin on his cute little face, tail up and wagging 100mph! He runs in big circles then stops grinning to see if I tell him go again or it's time to come in. He's even obeying the 'OK, that's enough, Come' now!
Thoughts and prayers for all needing them - holding lots of our LL family close as they struggle with life.
BIG HUGS to all that visit today!!!
