KCCO commented on Emmy's mom's blog post 'Swimming and heat'"By FREE carbs, I'm assuming you mean carb-free?
I always default to a string cheese when I need a munchy and don't want to take insulin. String cheese or a few almonds/cashews. Both are pretty portable, measurable, and do just fine in a…"
Stoyan commented on Emmy's mom's blog post 'Thanks'"Welcome from me too! Good luck to you and your daughter throughout this journey....hopefully we can find a cure for diabetes so that she and others can live freely."
Lorraine commented on Emmy's mom's blog post 'Swimming and heat'"Hi there. I got a frio pack when we went to Florida in July last year. I have found it to work well. I've heard of people putting things in a ziplok bag or the like and putting their supplies in a cooler."
Korrie commented on Emmy's mom's blog post 'Swimming and heat'"I place my meter in the outside pocket of my soft sided cooler. Sometimes I will get error messages but usually because the cooler winds up in the direct sunlight. I just put insulin/syringes/pump (when I unhooked to swim before Aquapac) in a baggie…"

We are members of a private pool, and spend ALOT of time there. I'm talking 3-4 days a week. So I am wondering how to keep diabetic supplies cool enough. Can the glucose meter be kept with the ice packs, or will it damage them? And are the frio wallets any good? What are some good FREE carbs to take that don't need refrigeration? Wow, that's a lot of questions. Thanks guys!!
Amber
Thanks

Thank you all for the welcoming. I am figuring out how to use this site. My (almost 5 year old) daughter is the one with type 1. She was diagnosed on Jan. 10,1012. So we are very new to this and learing as much as we can, as fast as we can.
