Impact on kids : )

I never noticed how much of an impact I made on my nieces and nephews till I saw them playing house last week. The kids are 7 and 5yrs. They had a baby who had diabetes. They used a block for the meter and a pen for the lancing device and had little pieces of paper for test strips. What caught my attention was when I heard them say “uh-oh I think her sugars low, we need to test her. She’s hungry and tired. Poor thing ” They tested and sure enough she was low! They got some juice(another block) and some crackers(paper with spots on it). Fed her right away and she was fine. They also fed her lunch which was measured and she was allowed a sugar free cookie(made with splenda) if she was in range and feeling good after supper.
