Good job. Having had several students fighting with diabetes over my career, I know how hard it was for them. Sounds like you are right on top of things. Keep up the good work.

Hi Sara, And good for you. Has your diabetes mangement in school been discrimnation free. I have anow 12 year old son, who was dx'd at 7 and the discrimination and retailiation we have endured is an atrocity. He has hung tough up until now. He's struggling psychologically, being in school # 9 and again not having safety measures in place although his IEP states they must be.
