The supplies you HAVE to carry are many. There are the supplies you carry just to get through every day: glucose meter, test strips, alcohol wipes, lancets, insulin and syringes. Then there are the snacks in case Monkey’s blood sugar drops too low and needs some extra carbs. And don’t forget the Glucagon Emergency Kit.
It’s been a rough 2 weeks for Monkey and Peanut. They are both battling illnesses, Monkey had a diabetic check up and Mom has no control.
HE DID IT! HE DID IT! HE DID IT! The DEXCOM Continuous Glucose Monitor may be life changing for our family and I couldn’t be happier about it.
