Mom’s Status: 2009-12-10

10:15 AM: I just woke her up to give her the morning meds.  She’s in some pain.

10:20 AM: Blood sugar: 210.  Covered with 14 units of log insulin. 

02:30 PM: Dispensed Mom’s afternoon meds.

02:35 PM: Blood sugar: 211.  Covered with 12 units of log insulin.

05:15 PM: Dispensed Mom’s supper-time meds.

06:15 PM: Blood sugar: 246.  Covere with 12 units of log insulin.

10:30 PM: Dispensed bed-time meds.

12:00 AM: I’ve asked her twice now to read her blood sugar over the past hour and a half, and she’s put me off both times.  So, I’ll let her be.  It’s her foot she might lose; not mine.

12:06 AM: Blood sugar: 295, according to her glucometer’s memory.  Coverage unknown, although I’d have given her 22 units of log insulin.  I’ll ask her tomorrow what she did take.
