What a big weekend for us! Megan had her first sleepover away from our house since she was diagnosed in August. I was very apprehensive, even though I knew that she could do it. I think my apprehension stemmed mostly from the fact that the sleepover was at a friend's house about 25 minutes away from ours. I kept having that thought in the back of my mind that I couldn't get to her quickly if something went wrong. As we get closer to the insulin pump start, I need to work on being able to let go a little. She is 12, and the time is coming that its not "cool" for me to always be around. I totally get that, I remember being 12! :)
She did amazingly well at the sleepover and was very responsible about her D care. I don't think I will ever relax when she isn't with me, but I know she is capable as a young adult to step away a bit and spread her wings.
