Individual Whisps

Small individual packets of Whisps. Kinda pricey, but great for on-the-go days. Found in the cracker aisle at Wal-Mart. 0 carbs.

Life moves on despite having diabetes

T1 life. Life moves on despite having diabetes.
 
I try to sit close to Samuel during his weekly swim class so his CGM sensor will continue to transmit to his phone, which is sitting next to me. 
 
Today, half way through class his blood sugar started to drop, so while his sister was taking a turn down the lane, I motioned for him to come to me. We poked quickly and he was 62. He said he felt perfect, so we conservatively corrected with 2 Bottlecaps (2 carbs of glucose). I sent him on his way chewing glucose as he got back in the water in this pic. We'll poke again after class (or sooner if he feels like he needs to) just to be safe.
