I am a happy camper today. It has been like a day off with Joanne. Early this AM she got up, got her sugar measured, took her insulin, freshened up and WALKED down the hall on virtually her own power, then back to the bathroom where she also did fine. Her sugar has not been over 200 for about a week thanks to the massive frequencies of insulin the diabetologist MD prescribed last week. She continues to eat well but the fact that she was relatively ambulatory today was astounding. Also making some sentences. I hope this portends daily improvement.
