BM Three Quarter Stat Day:

A.M. Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1457
    Reading:  122
A.M. Blood Pressure:
    Time:  1517
    BP:  151/72
    Pulse:  52

P.M. Blood Glucose:
    Time:  2125
    Reading:  167
P.M. Blood Pressure:
    Not taken

    The furosemide, as usual, continued working throughout the day, so today was a bit lazier than has been usual, even though we are in a valley of non-activity, right now.
    Breakfast: Normal holiday breakfast.
    Lunch: None.
    Dinner: Marie Callendar's Beef Pot Pie and German Chocolate ice cream (at her request...I made a special trip to go out and get it...she needs all the fluid I can get under her belt, however I can get it there).
    Bowel Movement occurred at 1615: Very good volume; slightly smeary consistency; very easy elimination; somewhat challenging clean-up.
    The good news is that I was right about her needing the furosemide. Her energy picked up in the evening, even though she was continuing to trot to the bathroom. She remained up until 0150, 11/19/06. Her light went out at 0215.
