Hi everyone,

My 13 year-old daughter was recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. She is doing very well, and we would like to send her to the same overnight camp that she has gone to for many years. The camp has no issue with it, and will support her.

My daughter, however, is concerned about some practical issues – for example, “Where will I put my monitor when I go swimming so that it doesn’t get lost or broken?”

Does anyone have a girl of the same age range who has handled these practical issues and would be willing to make contact with my daughter? She really just needs reassurance that she will be able to handle it and possibly brainstorming assistance in coming up with some solutions.

Thanks
