Lord, have mercy...
82 minutes after my last blood test, I find myself sweaty and weak and trembling. I debate for a while, but finally crawl out of bed and go downstairs to check. Not only am I crashing again, but I am 10 points lower than before! I start to make an egg, but grab the Cheerios instead, thinking that they have sugar and the milk will be a good balance. I check my blood sugar again after 15 minutes and it has not changed at all. I start shoving the trail mix hand over fist and guzzle Gatorade. I have not used orange juice as a rescue for a very long time, but surely it could not be the reason why I am here again? I am utterly confused. I am scared. I am also terrified to try and sleep though I am exhausted. And I am wishing I didn't feel so guilty about waking someone up to be with me just now.
I am Yours, Lord. Save me!

I don't know if you woke anyone up or not, but we were awake at 3:30. Sue was experiencing the chills that are the companion to a high fever. If you had called I could have passed the phone to her and the two of you could have been companions in misery! Hope you're feeling better today.
