Enlightenment happens

Mr Footless has been struggling with the pump.  I finally realized something about Mr Footless that will make dealing with things much easier.
Mr Footless is high blood sugar phobic.  The struggles that he has had are there because he fears high blood sugar and the complications so much that he prefers to put his life in danger by going low.
So the" leave things high and work them out slowly" approach really really doesn't work.
Today I set his bolus settings to something that is going to overdose him.  He will be much better about tapering things from low to high than high to low. 
The professionals don't get this. I do.
