Two lessons per day

After three decades, you’d think I’ve got it all figured out.  Well, here are 14 lessons that I’ve learned over the past week.

1. If the CGM sensor seems to be dead, it probably is.  Even if it eventually comes back in line with my actual BG, don’t get excited.  Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
2. Sometimes, feeling low sucks.  Other times, it feels like an enormous weight (300 milligrams of glucose, per deciliter to be precise) has been lifted off my shoulders.
   

   The best news I’ve had all day!

3. I may choose to ignore the advice that hot tubs are not good for PWDs..  But I should’ve kept the insulin pump (kept dry but not cold by Aquapac) out on the deck.  Heat kills insulin.
4. Just because the Aquapac keeps a pump – located INSIDE – dry, it doesn’t do the same for a cell phone located next to but OUTSIDE of it.
