Our son is type 1 diabetic. He has been on Lantus and Novolog for about 2 years and mostly things are going okay (except he is a teen in constant change)
I am a little worried about our next trip, not really sure how to handle the changes we will have. He is completely insulin dependent and we add his carbs up and figure his ratios. BUT I am reading Disney won't/can't give out carb info? Is this true? I already use carb counters and have a Calorie King book but I really like knowing exactly if I can. I am already worried he will want to graze all day (and he is on a 1unit to 10g ratio so that really can't happen but I'd hate to take it all away)
We are staying off site so I can cook some meals, so he won't be eating all junk or anything, but it is vacation (and after all our medical problems with the kids over the last 5 years I would like to not cook everyday)
Any tips? I'll take them all
