To accommodate spontaneous invites, always have a diabetes sleepover bag packed and ready to go that includes:
• blood glucose meter;
• test strips;
• extra batteries for the meter and pump;
• infusion sets;
• reservoirs;
• bottle of insulin;
• two insulin syringes;
• two ketone test strips;
• glucose tablets;
• phone charger; and
• flashlight so your child can see the monitor in the dark.
