Good Morning,

This morning's BG number is 5.5 -- mid-range normal and our lowest
start to a day.

Insulin dosage is Novolin 30/70, morning dose 34 units, evening dose
16 units.

We called the clinic and spoke with the nurse and asked about reducing
my wife's carb consumption. We're starting today with 3 carbs per
meal as opposed to the previous 4 carbs.

Her energy levels seem to be coming up (she's lasting longer thru the
day before needing a nap).

Her vision is still being blurred after her first meal. It's only
decent when she wakes up in the morning after fasting thru the night.
When she eats it blurs within minutes. She's eating only low to
medium GI foods ... breakfast is Red River Cereal, a small yogurt and
either a pear or apple (or today a small banana for a change).

That's about it.

Thanks and Cheers,
The Androids.
