It is time to head home. We know it was going to be a long day. After church, we left for the airport. Things were going well. We boarded the plane on time and ready to leave WHEN! Suddenly there was a problem with the aircraft. Off the plane we went. No time was given as to when we would leave and this started the stress levels going up. With this Sue started feeling off. Her vision was off and bothering her. After a 2 hour delay, they told us we are going to start boarding again in 45 minutes. Sue wasn’t feeling well so she checked her sugar level and it was 209. That was a very high number and it explained the vision issues. She gave herself a couple of units of Novalog to bring the levels down. Once we boarded the plane she checked her sugar again, it dropped to 171, still a little high. So, 2 more units were administered and about an hour later the numbers were 166. The trend was dropping. Our great trip has hit a bump, but Sue knew what to do and that is a great thing. She will need to follow up on Monday with the endocrinologist and monitor herself closely and hopefully back on the good side of the numbers again. We finally arrived home at 12:30 am and another check and her level was 99. The day was finally over…
