When my daughter was in elementary school, our regular nurse would always send me an email if she was going to be out. I could warn my daughter...
It's really hard because a post-breakfast 220 might not impair cognition for my daughter, but a similar high from a missed bolus or kinked canula...
In elementary school, I provided (& the nurse distributed) a box with tabs & granola bar possible place where she might be in case of lock down...
Same. Rarely went to the nurse's clinic 7th grade forward. Would sometimes text me (rarely even does that now that she's in high school).
Maybe you can try another approved mail order service that will honor your letter of medical necessity.
No way would anyone drill on my kid's teeth without numbing him. I'd find another dentist. Our dentist didn't seal until the kids had their...
Summer is the perfect time to teach practical things at home and have fun with it. Measure, weigh,& talk about carb count while cooking together....
They have a Sunday service (non-denominational) in a lovely open air chapel (there's a roof and benches, but no walls). The Seniors each session...
Just saw your post about her birthday at camp. DD had one at camp too. They get to go up on stage during the campfire and the Sweeney 5 band and...

Welcome. In addition to the great advice you've already received, we measure and weigh foods to get an accurate carb count and use carb...

It's also a chance to smile and say to your daughter, "Isn't it silly how people get get confused about what you can eat, even Grandma?" Because...
Watch out for dehydration too. It can cause my daughter to go high (but then we have to be very careful correcting for it; we re-hydrate and are...
We don't use a specified high # in our 504 for that reason (a mild high in the morning post-breakfast isn't going to cause issues with testing)....
I agree with Sarah. We've never needed it and I wouldn't go to war with the school over it. If your child has a history of seizures, etc,. then...
I don't have specific information about this camp, but my daughter has gone to sleep-away band camp offered by a local university and managed her...
Sounds frustrating! I've used Edgepark for years and have always had good service. I do have to review the order each time because sometimes...
Sounds like Maddie is doing a great job. Why does the teacher care? Does she find it disruptive or something?
I keep the "go bag" (backpack) and some bottled water in the closet that's our designated tornado room. So we have everything we need if we're...
