Re: Taylor

Hi,

We are going through the same thing now with my son. We test minimum 8 times a day and his little fingers look rather "holy". When we go swimming, the holes really show up so we call him spongebob squarepants...he gets a kick out of that. It is really hard, because with Clayton he has not been able to recognize his lows so we always use the fingers because they say to if he may be low. We are in the same boat as you and it is really hard. You feel bad, but the nurses just tell us to really keep rotating the finger spots as much as possible. 2 on each side one up one down. Sorry I am not much help but I know how you feel...it is frustrating and sad...
