Well, last night was another night of no sleep for us. Derek's BG was normal most of the day, he checked it at 9 when he gave himself his PM Insulin before bed. He was very tired so he agreed to try sleeping in bed again, but with the TV on. I figured I would not have difficulties falling asleep since I really haven't had a good nights sleep since Saturday night. I was wrong. We both tossed and turned. I was awake almost every 30 minutes checking to make sure he was okay. He was awake almost every time I woke up. Around 2:30 he woke me up and said he was going to go test, when he didn't come back to bed I got worried. He was sitting downstairs eating a package of cookies, his BG had dropped to about 40. He insisted that he was okay and got his levels back up to about 60. We didn't sleep the rest of the night though, he wanted to sit up and watch TV.
Today he has two assignments 1. Rest and relax 2. Make an appointment with the specialist. I am at work, and he is at home alone so I am a little anxious to hear from him. Assuming his levels stay good today he will go back to work tomorrow. I think he is ready though, he needs to feel in control of his life again and that will help him. All this stress and worrying is only making it worse.
Anyways, I promise my blog will be about weight loss again soon. Actually WI was this morning and although I was a little nervous to see I got on the scale this morning...123.6!!! Down -1.0 lbs!!! That means I am only 3.6 lbs. away from my goal! WooHoo for that!
I want to get back to thinking about the wedding. If Derek is up for it on Saturday, we have appointments to tour a few reception locations, yeah!
Okay, have a great OP day, and thanks for the continued support!

I hope you can get all of this stuff under control SOON!!! Not sleeping is not good for either one of you. I understand him not wanting to sleep though...how scary for both of you!!
WOO HOO on the loss this week!!! You are SO CLOSE!!! I know you will get there. I am so proud of you!
You poor thing - I cannot imagine what a scare that must have been!! I hope that they can find a solution soon and that you can get back to a semi-normal routine.
Please, please, please take care of yourself though - I know it's hard when you are so stressed about your guy but just remember that you need to be healthy to take care of him! Maybe you guys should take a couple of days off together, sit at home and veg out in front of the tv.......some down time for the two of you??
Just know that I am thinking of you both and you are both in my prayers!
CONGRATS ON THE LOSS!!!!
Sounds like you have had a stressful last few days and nights. It is great that you were able to react during this situation.
Rest for him and a trip to the doctor is probably the best thing right now. I will be thinking of you both.....
WOO freaking HOO!!!! YAY! That is just so amazing!
Just checking in... hope everything is still getting better & that you're just too busy to post. We miss you- come back soon! :D
I miss my Pink Hope Barbie friend - hope all is going okay and your Ken is feeling better. I also hope that you are getting some much needed rest!! (((HUGS))) and let us know how you are!
