As the month of November closes down....so (might) the daily blurbs for diabetes awareness....If you have learned anything this month, know that type 1 diabetes doesnt limit a person, but provides opportunities. Type 1 is different than type 2. And lastly remember....its kid first, and diabetic second. I am copying a post from a fellow mom of a kid with T1d....this is NOT an isolated incident. It happens to kids every day, in the classrooms, at friends...at church...people dont mean ill will by it (I hope) but it is a matter of....yes, repeat after me...educate and advocate....take into consideration for one milisecond how that kid must have felt....Insulin will fix a wacky blood sugar...Therapy is required to mend broken hearts. Please help us raise by healthy happy kids....Unless you receive a specific doctors or parents order....a kid with T1d can and should eat ANYTHING any other kids does....Especially in a school/party setting...Read on..... Annoyed beyond belief... Tuesday at my sons school they were handing out popcorn in the lunch room as a healthy snack for Fuel Up to Play 60 day. Everyone at my sons table got a bag, except for him. When he asked the lunch room monitor, he was told he wasnt getting one because of his special situation. Really??
