2 - Incorporate a higher fat, high protein snack before bed.
3 - Possibly increase his growth hormone dose as well.
We'll probably be doing more sugar-checks for a while. She says they recommend diabetics go to bed with a blood sugar of 100 to make sure there's room for a drop over night without being dangerous. Not sure if Athan needs to be exactly that, but we'll get a better idea of how his body does over night while we monitor his sugar more closely for a bit.
So, more sticks. Yuk.
Athan, aside from disliking the sugar checks, is fine. No worse for wear, it seems, from the episode last week.
And Mom and Dad are better. Fear still barks at me occasionally, but I'm asking again for the Lord to teach me to live a life of Love, not Fear.

Well. It is good to have some suggestions and a direction to go, I am sure.
As I read this, I can't help but read, "This means Amberly and Ryan are probably not sleeping much."
I envision middle-of-the-night sugar checks and such. Is this true?
So know that we are praying not only for Athan, but also that the Lord would somehow exponentially multiply what little rest you are getting. And that you would be restored and sustained and held...
Thanks for the update.

This sounds like a good plan and while the added sticks are yucky they will give some peace of mind. We too will pray for you to be sustained and that you will get some rest during this phase.
