After reviewing hundreds (total lie) of your Diabetes Match Game entries, we have a winner.

 

To review, the three phrases were:

 

1. Mrs. Barbara O'brien was so disoriented.
 

[HOW DISORIENTED WAS SHE???]
 

She was so disoriented that when she woke up in the middle of the night to test her blood sugar, instead of pricking her finger, she pricked her [BLANK].
 


  2. After a day of high blood sugars, Victor the plumber was so thirsty.
 

[HOW THIRSTY WAS HE???]
 

He was so thirsty, he dropped his wrench and chugged a gallon of [BLANK].
 

 

3. Sam the surgeon was always finding his used test strips in the strangest places.
 

One afternoon he even found one in his [BLANK].
 

 

For #1, many people chose "husband." This was a good answer, but I was looking for something a bit more specific to make a match.

 

#2 was pretty straightforward.

 

For #3, "patient" was a popular selection, but again I went with something more specific.

 

Here are my picks (in story form):

 

Sam the surgeon was always finding his used test strips in the strangest places. One afternoon he even found one in his patient's plumbers crack. His patient, Victor, was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery after he reportedly chugged a gallon of Drano. It's amazing, however, that Dr. Sam O'brien was even able to perform the surgery at all. Just five hours earlier, his disoriented wife Barbara thought she was checking her blood sugar, but she was really pricking his penis.

 

So there you have it:

1. Husband's penis

2. Drano

3. Patient's plumbers crack

 

Congratulations to Blogabetes' very own Nicole Purcell for having the closest match by choosing husband, Drano and patient.

 

Thanks for playing. Have a great weekend.
