Hypoglycemia

We were just lounging around at home one evening and he seemed fine.  After some time, he wasn't acting like himself and seemed out of it.  I immediately grabbed the meter and checked his blood sugar, it was 26!!  I freaked out and gave him as much cookies, juice, and candy as I could. BIG ROOKIE MISTAKE!!  A while later, when we rechecked, he was near 400.  I realize now that we can not over-treat.  Now we follow the Rule of 15.
