Well, today stinks! Treats are hard. Parents, if your child has a functioning pancreas, please think twice about how you celebrate holidays, birthdays, and extracurricular activities at school. I’m sure I didn’t think about this before #diabetes. My #t1d son loves these days and we let him participate because our mantra is “kid first, diabetes second,” but that means a crappy day of BGs, stressed parents, and busy school nurses. If he has a treat in the morning, we could still be dealing with the aftermath at dinner. Literally. Please think about alternatives to candy. It’s better for ALL our kids #❤️ #vdaysucks #teampancreas #iwishpeopleknewthatdiabetes #candyisnotlove #type1diabetes
