    So far, so good with the vet tech and the pet sitter. Gideon is hopefully getting a 1p test today by the pet sitter. The pet sitter even showed the vet tech how I do Gideon's ear test from on top of the ear. The vet tech does it from the underside of the ear. She did it on the outer side of the ear versus inner side, and the pet sitter said it went very smooth.

    Hoping for a good day for all.

    At 1pm (+6) Gideon's BG was 103. I had the pet sitter test again in 30 mins to see which way he was headed. At 1:30p, he was 95. I had her feed him his normal food sprinkled.eith Dr. Elsey's dry. At 2:30p he was 141. Next test will be vet tech at 7p. She will not shoot below 200 in the PM, but I am pretty sure he will be higher than 200 by then.

    PMPS =222
    Pet sitter will try to get another reading at 10p. If he is not much higher, I will have her feed some 12% carb food, just to keep him safe during the night.

    Pet sitter said Gideon is not cooperating with his 10p (+3) BG test. I asked her to give him some 15% carb food to keep him safe tonight in case he goes a bit low.
