5 Challenges and 5 Victories...Day 18 #HAWMC



Today is 5 Challenges and 5 Victories of Diabetes.

CHALLENGES:

  1. Keeping BG's in range
  2. Exercising and the 6 hour delayed low and pre/during exercise spike
  3. Living life with D along for the ride and NOT taking the wheel
  4. Not obsessing over BG's and the shoulda/woulda/coulda
  5. Insurance coverage/upkeep/supply ordering, etc.
VICTORIES:

  1. Keeping BG's in range
  2. Exercising and NOT seeing the 6 hour delayed low because we tried a different combination of things and we just happened to OWN it like a BOSS!! (at least for one night!)
  3. Living life with D along for the ride and NOT taking the wheel
  4. Seeing happy kids because I DIDN'T obsess over BG's and let them be kids
  5. NOT fighting with insurance/supply order/picking up supplies


As you can see some of the challenges are also the victories. The thing to remember is to keep it all in stride. Easier said than done sometimes and managing two T1D daughters is sometimes just that. But we take each day as a day and know that tomorrow gives us another shot (pun intended) at D again. What challenges/victories do you see?
