Did you engrave your child's Medical ID?
If so, with what info?
His name? Mom's phone number? Hospital info?

Ours has:
Front- His Name Back-Insulin dependant Diabetes Doctor's name Doctor's phone number He is with us all the time so I felt it would be more importrant to contact a doctor for info if something were to happen to us. Dh has ICE in his cell phone and I have info in my wallet.

My good one has
Front: Type 1 Diabetes Insulin Pump Asthma Back: my name I also like the rubbery bracelets from diabeticwristbands.com The ambulance service said they would notice it. They are trained to look at everything! My mom mentioned a few weeks ago that she would kind of like her # on it, but i said i idnt want to pay for a new one. Later that day I ended up with a doc visit, 2 ambulance rides, and a stay in the picu. One of the ambulance nurses looked at my bracelet, read everything (even the back), then said "looks like you might need to be adding allergic to...something to that" It wasnt an allergy, but i may be needing to add the new dx now. I thought it was ironic after the convo my mom and i had earlier in the day.

Yup. We get them engraved at MedicAlert which is where we get ours from. It says Diabetes and then has the MedicAlert phone number and my DD's ID number.

I had silicone wristbands of a 20 colors made with
Diabetes Insulin Pump Phone # Because the Omnipod is tubeless and under DD's clothing I was especially worried pump would go undetected. So far she has had fun finding the color she wants to wear and has worn one everyday. That's a big deal with a 12 year old.

YES.. we got our newest one from
http://www.ekaccess.com/pages/medical.htm It has been by far the best one.. you get 4 lines on front, 4 lines on back.. We have on the front type 1 diabetes insulin pump novalog on the back her name mom's cell dad's cell endo' # I wanted novalog on it because when we got in our crash this summer and we where in the ER far away from home.. THE ER staff treated a high blood sugar with out even asking Allen or Me on what or how much and gave her regualar insulin instead of novalog.. and double the dose.. SO i hope this prevents that in the future.. Because on top of beign scared to death about the accident i had to call her ENDO office and find out how to fix 2x the amount of insulin given and find out how regualar works in this case vs novalog...
