Death, taxes, and Change.....

Every once and a while life changes. The life that we once knew will change for better, or for worse. The problem with that when speaking in terms of a child with diabetes is that we end up having to tweak the insulin all over again.

School is set to start, and I find myself writing a health plan for first grade. Yes, all day at school, and lunch there to boot. Now if this was creative writing it would be done, and in a way I guess it is. In order to write a good plan for school we need to know what will our challenges be? Last year it was sever lows. Highs were never really an issue. Now all of that has changed, and so I am finding myslef not knowing what to write, and knowing that I am going to have to tweak this health plan many times. I wish I could just pick up where we left off last year, but it would not be accurate. Do all D parents go through this yearly, or do things eventually go back to how they were?

So far change has been my biggest arch enemy. Not that all changes are bad, and yes, I do look forward to full time school, but the only three things that are ever certain in life is Death, Taxes, and Change.

Back to writing the health plan. I'll post it when I am done!

Thanks for the note on my blog.

I hope you managed to finish your health plan and best of luck with school. I've got three children starting on Tuesday, big change from homeschooling!
