Camp La-No-Che

We went camping this weekend at Camp La-No-Che camplanoche.com.   The camp was primitive, which made it more challenging and exciting.  It was lots of fun and there were many activities.  Gabriel's BGs were perfect all day, and at night he went a bit low.  He did lots of exercise throughout the day.  He was so proud to say that he did not even get one mosquito bite. He and his sister won the costume party at camp.

My Condiments

Anniversary Year of Gabriel's Autologous Stem Cell Transplant
I can't believe October 30th will be the anniversary year of my son's  "Autologous Stem Cell Transplant" (his own stem cells).

October test results, A1C= 6.8, it was 6.3 in June.  Antipancreatic Islet Cells are Negative.  The C-Peptide not done in October, but in June it came back with < 0.05.  There are a couple more follow up labs coming up.  He continues on Novolog insulin via pump therapy.   We were reducing his insulin requirements. However, this month we have increased it and the sensitivity ratio.  IAA=55.   I was told puberty or insulin resistance may be influencing his glucose control.
