He's a deep sleeper (I understand Joe is too) so the poke doesn't wake him, more irritates him with wrinkled eyebrow, but still eyes closed.

I wasn't with Vince the first time he used the pump, so when he started on it again last year, I was scared. We knew the pump trainer. She is very nice. I said I have a dumb question. Can this thing malfunction and pump all 240 units (the amount we load at one time) into him? She said no, she has never heard ofthat happening. But I was still scared of that for the first month or so. Now I love the pump and love the CGM even more of course. Also, Vince tends to fall asleep a lot on the couch. He snores a lot too. If he is sleeping and is quiet, I get nervous. I used to actually get mad when he would always fall asleep (though I have gotten much better about that) because I would get scared when he went to sleep!! How sad! So I know, oh do I know....Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07361096702591999799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177432865376147686.post-18439099024007004542011-06-21T07:05:32.229-04:002011-06-21T07:05:32.229-04:00Argh I have that same battle in my head.

It is a very distressing part of d. I am glad Joe is/was fine. Oh, I have a workout question for you - how do you get your runs in when the kids are home for the summer? And I was thinking about buying a running belt with the bottles on the side so that I can put gatorade in one for Isaac and use the pouches for his glucometer and glucose tabs, have you tried one? I need something the camo bag or backpack just aren't cutting it for quick trips around the block with the boys on bikes and me running!
