green_trilobite wound up in emergency, and will be there for a few days. I really really have to get better at watching his diet and blood sugar levels. >:(
9pm update:
Good news - green_trilobite called me after work to let me know he'd been allowed to go home once they gave him a blood-sugar meter, a prescription, and a talking-to about looking after himself better. I will try to make sure he sticks to it this time.
Sort of ironically,
this was this week's
PI episode. Carl tends to have the opposite problem from grren_trilobite.
