Full Stat Day:

AM Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1250
    Reading:  172
AM 60" Dig Temp:
    Time:  1313
    Reading:  97.1

PM Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1952

Medication Changes:
  • 1 brewed cup of Peach Detox Tea in the evening
  • 500 mg acetaminophen after nap for yet another cannula dislodging; this time I caught it before the pain started, although after her body began registering distress; since I knew it would take about 20 minutes for the acetaminophen to kick in, I administered the larger dose, just in case the pain started before the analgesic kicked in. Turns out, luckily, we caught the pain before it started.
    Miscellaneous Food Note:  1 piece of multigrain toast with Fleishmann's margarine and cinnamon with acetaminophen mentioned above, just before dinner
    Dinner:  Taco Bell, Mom's choice; dessert was a slice of lemon meringue pie. She ate about 3/4's of her dinner and about 3/4's of her pie.
Sleep:
  • Awake at 1230
  • Down for nap at 1700
  • Up from nap at 1945
  • Down for night at 0030
  • Awake 9.25 hours
