All Of Those Lows Finally Paid Off
Over the years, we've had waves of good numbers with the hope that Brendon's A1C would come out really good (under 7.0), only to have the hope dashed my mega trends of high numbers. Murphy's Law dictated that the highest of highs would occur days before his checkups.
Although he hasn't been above a 7.9 since his first year of diagnosis, we always hope for an A1C in the 6 range.
Well, today during his checkup, we finally got what we hoped for: 6.6
YAY!!

Great news! And hopefully those lows will back the hell off and let him run stable for a while.

Yay! You must be working very hard, at his age my A1c was all over the place. I think that also had to do with the type of insulin I was on. Congrats!

Congratulations, Brendon!
Congratulations, Shannon!
That's wonderful news! I'll bet you were in 7th heaven, huh?

wow.
(yeah, 6's range has its downside with the lows. Greg almost doesn't want to be back at that point - he'd be happy with low 7's due to the degree of hypoglycemic unawareness he was getting in the 6's.)
