An Early Start

Thought we would give you an early morning update since we are anticipating a drive back home later on today...

Last night we had a bit of a scare when Samantha Grace's blood sugar dropped to 62. It took a couple glasses of milk and some sugar-free chocolate pudding to get it to a safe level before bed time. Her blood sugar in the middle of the night was 315 requiring only a small amount of insulin, which she was a star and didn't cry for the finger prick or shot! It made mommy so proud. Her blood levels this morning was perfect at 120.

Unfortunately, our peaceful angel's sleep was broken early this morning with some unexpected labs; however, the good news is that they got all the lab work done so we won't have to do any upon our return to Children's Hospital in June. She was able to have some snuggle time with daddy this morning and sleep-in just little before the morning really got going!

We will have educational classes this morning and some meetings with our doctors. We are still praying that her blood sugar levels stay in a manageable range and consistent so we can go home later on today.

Thanks again for all your prayers and support. We also thank our "Pantry Angels" for making things easier upon our arrival back home. We have a phenominal church and just feel so blessed.

I close with some verses that a friend of ours sent to me this morning:

Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; You are Mine!When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you; For I am the Lord you God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior. - Isaiah 43:1b-3a
