My friend's daughter was just diagnosed. The bad news: She's 18 and 1/2, which means she can't go to CHOP. Can anyone recommend a good practice in...
Thanks Sarah. That's an approach I wouldn't have thought of on my own. I'll give it a try.
I am sure that it's an absorption thing, but just because I'm sure doesn't mean that I'm right. She's using the omnipod so no different...

Your daughter eats way better than my daughter. I would have exploded if I were in that meeting.
amazing boy!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful moment. And thanks for all you have done for all of us.
I'm almost as excited as you are. What a story and what a picture! Not only will your son never be held back by diabetes, but you'll never hold...
