Sandy I am so proud of you!!! I do know how hard this is...I had tried just above Winston's tail as well...not even a drop of blood. Tried the ear first...the foot pad and the lip/gum. It's very hard to do. Thank goodness his life doesn't depend on me doing this successfully...it was just to see if his glucose was low at the first signs of a seizure. Guess we'll never know. My vet isn't sure either. Luckily it doesn't happen often...so no meds. Back to you and Meika...I'm sure she knows how fortunate she is to have such a caring mom...keep up the fantastic work with her. I'm thinking soon, your vet will have you checking her glucose daily and adjusting the insulin according to the readings. Not sure I fully understand the need to do so many test once a week...instead of fewer test on a daily basis. But your vet knows best. High five to you and loving Meika enough to care.
