Coming around

She finally just got her first dose of Humalog fast acting insulin tonight, since the big event yesterday morning. Her BG has been drifting up, since the Lantus finished acting last night. Very nice to have them ask me to recommend the dose. She goes NPO (no food) at midnight, in preparation for a procedure to install a new temporary catheter, that can be used for dialysis after she leaves the hospital. I'm already campaigning to have them discharge her to home from here. Especially after the lost-belongings episode, we don't think the nursing facility was all that helpful.

Update 7:30pm -- She is awake and chipper, and gorging herself on delicious Chinese food, before the NPO no-food order kicks in at midnight. She has a Catheter procedure tomorrow, not sure when.
