Good! You're Math People - He will be okay!
Once Andrew got his own room, more than one nurse commented that it was good that we were "math people", because that meant he would be okay. I thought that meant that if we learned all the formulas and followed them, Andrew would have great blood sugar numbers. Turns out, we are considered to be doing well if 75% of numbers are in range. The comments came from the fact that from now on, every meal or snack that Andrew eats will be a math problem and mistakes can be devastating.
