I know how scary this must be for you. My late husband was a Type I diabetic from age 4. Occasionally his blood sugar would soar to dangerous levels and he'd end up with ketoacidosis. When he did, he went into the hospital and he always developed pneumonia. Nine times out of ten he'd end up sedated and on a respirator. It was so nerve wracking waiting for his lungs to clear enough for them to wean him off the respirator and for him to wake up. He always did. I lost him in December 2014 to heart failure.

I'm keeping both of you in my thoughts.
