13 January 2013

I got up early this morning and thus had plenty of time for a nice walk to the gym and even a bit of exercise while there. It was cold, but certainly not bitter.

After getting some chores done, including the weekly grocery shopping, I headed up to visit David in Be'er Sheva. He is in MUCH better spirits! He talked with the doctors, and they promised to help him speed things up and get the help he needs to be more mobile and to have more options of things to do. There no word yet, of course, on when he'll be coming back home.

This evening, after I got home from Be'er Sheva, I got a call from the nurse where David is. They had tested his blood sugar, and it was, of course, high since they hadn't given him a bolus to cover his meals. She told me the number, and I did the calculation to determine how much insulin they should give him. Then I proceeded to walk her through the process of actually getting the pump to give it to him. All of this was in Hebrew!
