Do Lou meets spinball

1/2

Well yesterday was the first time he has ever gone below 40 2x in a cycle so he was reduced to 3.5 last night of course he is bouncy today I doubt he will hold the reduction but felt it was the safest thing to go with after yesterday and all that up and down you could tell last night he was not feeling as well

where does the time go anymore here we are Dec again and if I reflect upon this past year with Do Lou and FD well at first I know I had hoped he would be OTJ by now and that has not happened when I first met D on the Diabetic board she felt he has a good chance of coming OTJ so I do think I got my expectations way way too high and maybe he will one day who knows I have since brought myself back down to earth and now realize I must get my son to do more shots so I can once again go somewhere overnight its been over a year now since the hubby and I went anywhere overnight and its just long overdue at one point I had thought to travel with Do Lou and maybe one day but for short trips I feel like with his blindness that staying home would be less stressful on him. Hope to go to the smoky mountains soon for a weekend to combine it with a kitten pickup. His ears are acting up put tresaderm in his ears today. He is on 3.5 right now he has went low to the 20s again recently do not like that. Guess thats all for now.

been very frustrating lately to say the least I know part of it was maybe the bad insulin but still his numbers have not been the best and we are up to 4U again feel like we are going backwards instead of forwards have not been posting as much on the FD board just been so depressed and busy with other things too. He is still doing better so I know I should not complain since his pu/pd is still OK and he eats good most days but my dream of him going OTJ has pretty much died. Now I just would like to see better numbers with a smaller dose.

Its been one year today since Do Lou was dx'd

well this time last year I was at the vets waiting to be seen to see if Do Lou was diabetic and then came the shock he was. 4 months of being on N would pass and I would see him decline in this time finally on March the 7th we start on lantus and he starting to feel better then in April I got him off dry which made a big change in his numbers I had hoped to have him OTJ by now but he is not who knows if he ever will be at least he is doing so much better and I  know thats what  I need to concentrate on

plugging along

well we are currently on 3U as of today up from a s3U numbers are good some days and on others he seems to have high yellows still keep hoping we will one day just start to have straight blues but that day has not arrived yet he has been eating good for he most part today he did the cutest thing I was cleaning our bedroom and he had gone out into the rest of the house and next thing I know he is beating at the door to get back in to his room and he came in dragging a candy corn bag leaving a trail of candy corn behind him it was just the cutest thing and he dropped the bag when he came in like he had found something really cool this bag was up on the microwave so he had to have jumped up on the counter and then drag it over the puppy gate LOL and all this with a cat that 90% blind he is such a character, we had gone down to 2.5 recently then his numbers required we go back up to 3U slowly
