We had this problem last year, as my son's recess was BEFORE lunch. So, after playing hard for thirty minutes, would report into the nurses...
We have travelled to Indonesia in the past with my son and more recently to Sri Lanka. We were told he didn't need any vaccines and he was too...
Our endo has always told me anything under an 8 is the target for kids. Jacob, who's 11 has always been around 7.3 on average (I think right...
I hope you were able to figure it all out with the sites and all is well now! Just a thought - whenever we've been up in Mammoth skiing, we've...
Sorry about all the problems you are experiencing! I found it was a learning curve when we got a pump, and even then, it's not perfect ( I too...
Try Vacation Rental by Owners (VRBO) too. We rented a nice large three bedroom apartment in London (Covent Garden) about 12 years ago. I can't...

I'll check Jacob at least once or twice per night (at 1:00 am, and, if low or very high, at 3:00 again). There are a lot of factors, besides IOB,...

When we've been swimming in the pool or ocean, a large water-proof band-aid over the site has always worked for us. Stephanie, Mom to Jacob age...

Jacob went when he was 8 - I spent a weekend with him as a transition (this was part of their "family camp") and then left Monday morning. I...
I'd go ahead and change it now if it's going between 1-2 bars, especially if you haven't changed the first battery yet. Our educator had told us...
Jacob's A1C at diagnosis was somewhere in the upper 8's and I believe his BG's were in the 800's. Fortunately he wasn't sick yet, but our...
