How to get the kids to bed on Christmas Eve

Mungo update 8

The beast appears to be getting better. When he went on his latest excursion to that place he came back with a perfect glucose curve and instructions to keep up with the minimum insulin dose as it won't do any harm and to make an appointment when we run low for another check-up.

The vet thinks what has happened is Mungo's pituitary gland was acting up and produced something that fits into his insulin receptors, so the insulin he naturally produces didn't get a chance to work. This may have stopped... for now. Next time he goes to the vet's they'll do a slightly different test which will - hopefully - confirm this.

For now Mungo is his usual annoying self, demanding raw chicken with menaces when himself was putting a stir-fry together tonight.
