Scan. She is worried about going to sleep tonight now. It bleed slightly when she died it. Any adviser
 
Really do think it’s clear that there are many faulty sensors around at the moment. 5 of my last 7 have failed either at the start or half way through the two weeks ultimately giving false results just before failure - just as you said. I have advised Abbott and got some replaced. Difficult to comment on your daughter, does she have a history of being low at night and rely on the Libre alarm. Perhaps have some extra carb before bed for tonight.
 
Not very helpful for tonight but phone Abbott and get them to replace it when their phone lines are next open

Does your daughter rely on Libre for alarms?
