Combined Stats: 3/22 - 3/26/05

BM No Stats 3/26/05
    This is information I'm transferring from a previous post at my main journal, The Mom & Me Journals dot Net.
    Bowel Movement:  Very small volume, one short fat turd eliminated so easily during bathing she thought she'd only farted (although she would never call farting "farting"). That was probably about 1030, while we were bathing her.

Breakfast 3/23/05
Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1004
    Reading:  104
Blood Pressure:
    Time:  1008
    BP:  143/74
    Pulse:  58

    Well, at least her blood sugar is back to normal, which is good. Her blood pressure is still bothering me, though. We'll see what happens in the next few weeks, as I finish taxes and get them to Mom's CPA.

BM Lunch 3/22/05
Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1539
    Reading:  170
Blood Pressure:
    Time:  1545
    BP:  135/59
    Pulse:  53

    Her Bowel Movement occurred, as is becoming normal, at around 1100 when we were bathing her. Volume was a bit less than what has become normal; two short, fat turds. Consistency was excellent, clean-up was a breeze, elimination was very easy.
    I am a bit concerned about her blood sugar. I think it may have something to do with the increased difficulty I've been having, lately, getting her to drink. Thus, she's been extending the drinking of her orange juice at breakfast, for instance, for a good hour or so, longer if I don't harrass her. Just out of curiosity, though, I think, tomorrow, I'll take her blood sugar at breakfast to see if it's dropping back as usual or if it is remaining at a high constant.
    Her blood pressure is a bit worrisome, too, since she was at close to a complete sitting rest. Some of this could be my anxiety, lately, over taxes, whether I'm actually working on them or not. She tends to reflect my anxiety.
