Pam shares what lifestyle changes she adopted to benefit her type 1 diabetic son.

Pam:
I have a tight relationship obviously with the school nurse. I talk to her almost on a daily basis because, we start off his day obviously testing his blood first thing in the morning. He tests before he goes to school, he tests like three times while he is at school, and then several times after school, and since the last couple of months he has actually been playing football, which is exercise, a new routine, it causes all kinds of new headaches where we now we have to be more in contact with the doctor as well as the school nurse in keeping him regulated because we can’t seem to find a happy medium with moderating his blood sugars at this point.
