Diabetes and traveling

When traveling with a diabetic it is no fun. I should know, I am the diabetic. My dad is a trucker and is gone most of the summer. Sometime's I will go with him. The past 2 times I have gone with him. The 1st time I want with him it was hell. I am not jokeing. My life was hell for 2 and half weeks.

I would get up in the moning and be about low 100's sometime's high 100's. I got count carbs than put into my pump. Than I would eat and do whatever I felt like doing. I would write or be on the laptop or sleep or sleep. Would stop to eat lunch. I would make something while carb counting. Than I will eat. It repeat's all day long.

The last time was hell. I was time's in the 100's but sometimes I would be in the high 300's or low 200's to high 300's and sometimes I would go to 400's.

I want home and come back out after a week.

It was the same thing as the last time. But than I found someone to help me. That would be my best friend and diabetic friend Amber Beth. I love her she is like a sister but with diabetes. I told her what was going on. She helped me set up a trave plan. I love her for that. And I love my trave plan.

But today was not what I was thinking it would be. I woke up being 198. I counted the carbs than pumped for it than eat. Sat on the laptop, writing, reading, whatever really.

Lunch came 221. Not bad, I count carbs pumped than eat. I did the same thing.

Supper came around 309! What happend there I dont know. I pumped in the food I was going to eat than want inside and eat supper at wendy's.

Two hours after supper.......293. 1.5 untis with some still left from supper. I think I am going to have a long night.

Dear Diabetes,

Dear diabetes,

We have know each other for 12 years and I still dont like you. I would love to like you but you just make my life hell with all the testing I have to do and when you wake me up in the middle of the night just so I can be high or low. I really dont like the times that u make me feel like crap. But Diabetes we do have our good times like when my numbers are good. And when I wake up with good numbers. Or after I go swiming and my numbers are good.

I guess we do have our good times diabetes but we also have our bad times and our really bad times. But in the end I sometimes do like you. Thats all for now Diabetes.

Checked at 2:15am and I was 60 had some candy. Waited for 15 mins. That want by got checked at 2:30am. I was 57. What how can this be. So I go down stairs and have some milk. Want back up to my room and got Checked. I was 88. Yes I was just right to go to bed.

I want to bed and got wrok-up at 8:59am and said that I could go back to bed after I ate. I want down stairs and ate. I was told that Sweet big brother need to go to the bank and I had to go with him.

Sweet Mamma and Sweet Pa had to go with Sweet middle brother to a meeting. So I could not stay home.

What a day I have had with my BG's

Today my Bg's were around the 200's intell i got to supper 306! What! I didnt eat anything since lunch. Than 2 hours later. 309! What I dont belive that is right! 1 hour later 296 ok coming down a little bit. 1 hour later 259 ok has come downalot since I last checked had a snack and than got back on here.

I think I kown why I was running around 200 and than up to 309. Cause I am with my dad in the big truck and I dont get out of the truck very much.

Well this is a sad day for me cause today is the last day that I am going to go with my dad. Cause next week he is takeing someone with him I think. And I have a math test and I have not done any math while i have been gone cause it is x table and I dont get how to show ur work.

So when I get home I will have my mom or big brother Josh help me do it. Than I get to help my mom clean my room while she gets to move the stuff around and i dont get to see wre it will go.

Well i amost forgot to say that on wesday it was 2 weeks since I cut 2 of my fingers, while I was feeding one of the dogs. We lost a glass pie pan and I cut 2 of my fingers. But the one is not as bad as the middle finger on my right hand, it is the hand I write with but is not the hand that i use to check myself.

Goodbye intell the next time I blog.
