Episode 71- Fearing Insulin on Board, Dosing for Pizza and Donuts, and a Special Surprise

Sometimes we just want our kids to have a dang donut. But why does this food have to be so hard to dose for? Is it even worth the hassle? Raquel and Amanda think so. They go through how they uniquely dose for challenging high fat foods (like pizza and donuts), discuss insulin on board and how they use that information to make diabetes dosing decisions, and chat what it's like living ALONE with type 1 diabetes. As parents of type 1 kids, we want all the information so we can be as informed as possible and attempt to give our children as normal a life as possible. Join the Type One Together girls for their takes on all these topics and more...PLUS a little life update for one of them :) AD: Sweet Dreams is an iPhone app that makes it effortless to monitor your (or a loved one's) blood glucose level.
