I do have a niece with diabetes, but beyond having deep empathy for her and other children with this viscous disease, I don't have much first hand experience.

Alex left for Boy Scout camp with dad yesterday. Dad had to come home to work until Wed. It is the first time he will be at camp without one of us there. I am nervous.

Reading just gives me a little bit of an insight into what my mother must have been through in some of my growing up years. Bless you.

I asked the mom.<BR/><BR/>"Oh yes," she said, turning to face me. <BR/><BR/>That's when I saw that she, her husband, Sandra Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16664436447708465809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11856564.post-68608242077734797562007-07-30T12:24:00.000-05:002007-07-30T12:24:00.000-05:00Sandra,I remember reading about Jospeh and diabete...Sandra,<BR/><BR/>I remember reading about Jospeh and diabetes camp the last 2 years. I remember that he always has a great time.<BR/><BR/>But, I also remember that last year he ran high during the night and had some accidents.<BR/><BR/>It sounds like this year hopefully they will have him covered.<BR/><BR/>I think you're great for letting him go. I'm not sure I'll be able to ever let Riley go.Penny Ratzlaffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03368479901015692591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11856564.post-21279082325370214922007-07-30T07:59:00.000-05:002007-07-30T07:59:00.000-05:00Your posts are like a good book you just can't put...Your posts are like a good book you just can't put down.<BR/><BR/>I can feel your fear of the overnights.

I know that was one of your concerns.<BR/><BR/>It was great meeting you and your family. It all went better than I could've expected :)<BR/><BR/>I had a fun time talking to you. I wish we all lived closer together.
