First sick day with diabetes

We recently experienced Darci's first sick day with diabetes. Another thing I didn't know much about until Darci got diabetes is that being sick can affect her glucose range drastically. She weathered it better than we expected and we were so appreciative to Dr Swinyard (endocrinologist) and Dr. Barrett (pediatrician) for coordinating together with her care and making this mommy feel like we could handle the new situation. It is exhausting checking Darci's glucose twice a night. But we definately prefer that to checking her every hour (add in Eliza's feedings).

Darci and Eliza hung out a lot on my bed.

A little later the boys were feeling left out so they joined.
