A low thought....

As I was sitting in study hall a week or so ago I wrote this down in my phone as I thought of what happened the night before.

As I went to bed last night I had a high bloodsugar...probably because I was off my pump for 3 hours while working out and not dosing for my dinner until after I ate which is unusual for me. I end up regretting this lack of good control when I wake up at 3:30 in the middle of the night with a bg of 34....yes that's not a typo it was 34... this number is not as scary for me normally if I was awake but when I am sleeping and wake up randomly in the middle of the night and am week I have a bit of a panic attack.... for those of you that know me I NEVER I mean NEVER wake up in the middle of the night unless it is from a nightmare... so the fact that I woke up was amazing and I thank God for that because I think it could have gone a lot lower. So I woke up and had to literally force myself to reach for my tester because I felt like I didn't even have enough energy  to move. I scramble around with my tester to finally poke myself and hear the beep to read the number 34 this is about the time when I start yelling for my parents. One of them gets up and goes to the kitchen and brings me a glass of orange juice. I drink it in like .02 seconds... that's the weird thing about me when I get low I feel like I could eat a horse. This feeling usually ends up to me over treating my low more times than not. I then beg for a peanut butter sandwich so back to the kitchen they go and return with a sandwich they then say they will check me in a little bit you may think ohhhh she's better but in my mind I'm terrified and lay in my bed for the next 15 minutes scares to go back to sleep. I then think what will happen when I am alone.... What will happen when my parents aren't there to bring me juice. What will I do? As I start to think about this it scares me!
Also the other day when I was at my friend Hannah's house before we went to volleyball practice practically half asleep on the couch. We both new that I needed to go get my tester and test since it had been awhile and Hannah who is the most loving friend a person could have goes up and gets my tester and tests me. No help! She has the routine down.... It warms my heart and almost makes me cry that I have friends that really care about me and love me. I love her so much....
Goodbye for now!

The Normal Stuff....

The last couple of weeks have been pretty uneventful. I did however get my wisdom teeth pulled the day before thanksgiving. I was very thankful that God only gave me two of them! haha I recovered pretty fast but it did keep me from running for a couple of days so I had to make those up. Living in Nebraska means having very cold nights this time of year, and not only does it get cold but it gets darker faster so I have started running inside more. I am amazed every time I work out on how much my diabetes LOVES the exercise. Every time after I run my BGs are between 80-100 no exceptions....I don't know about you but I am amazed by that. Although sometimes my bgs do like to drop during my run and I can end up in the 70 to 60's which while you are running is a hard thing to get up. It seems like I am constantly eating, testing, eating testing and so on but what can you do its bound to happen. As far as school goes it is kind of at the point where you don't really want to go back after thanksgiving break and are counting the days till Christmas break. I cant believe it but in 27 days I guess it is I will be 16. I don't really know to whether I am happy or sad. Every year seems to go by so fast and in a way I don't want to get older haha but I cant really stop it so life moves on. This Sunday me and my good friend are running a 5k for fun it will be a little chilly but fun at the same time. Also I had my 7th walk awards night... I got the Golden Sneaker Award (personally raising  over $1,000) and the Bronze Team Award (My team together raising over $1,000) it was my 7th year in a row getting both awards and I was excited to receive them again!

7 years worth of awards
