I can understand that completely, as I have said many times on TU I think the parents of t1 children are truly unbelievable, I cant imagine what it is like to see your child suffer with the crap that T1's go through every day! You are a true ROCK to your child! ROCK on!

I'm the one looking for security - He is obsessed with looking at the numbers!

I would just put it inside a teddy bear..and let him hug it all night. That way, the teddy bear IS TRULY a source of security! (for both of you)

My son does this too. It makes it hard to find when I'm trying to check him in the middle of the night!

Just do what I do Maia and sleep with your hand curled up around the receiver. It makes the compulsion of checking it every time your eyes open up a lot easier when you don't have to fumble around in the dark for it.

I'm laying here in bed, just calibrated my Dex (for the first time!) about an hour ago... I can't sleep I'm so enraptured with my magical new Diabetes Toy!

I am super excited! I got an email from my Dex rep saying that my Dex was out of warranty...so they just got insurance to cover a new one! It came in the mail this afternoon with a pretty new zipper case and one of the flexible covers that people keep talking about that I have yet to see! Yahoo! Now just waiting for a shipment from American Diabetes Wholesale to complete my Dex happiness!

Does anyone know if they make homing devices for the Dex receiver? :0 Just spent 15 minutes looking for the darn thing, couldn't remember where I laid it down! Usually keep in my purse or a pocket but when at home I don't always have a pocket. I'm terrified I'm going to loose the darn thing. I need a little sensor to put on the receiver with another remote like a key fob, when you press the button, it beeps so you can find it.

I began the 7+ today after reading the booklets and reviewing the online tutorial multiple times, particularly the tricky part about inserting a sensor. I played the tutorial on the PC as I went live. My young daughter wandered in and briefly saw what was happening, then ran upstairs to tell my wife, "Dad is chatting with a woman online, and she is showing him pictures of herself!"
So my wife paid me a visit down in my office, and I had to show her the part where the woman in the tutorial pulls up her shirt to reveal her belly and wipe it down with an alchohol prep.
