It gives us peace of mind knowing that it's there. It was all the rage at Diabetes Camp. In fact it was camp protocol to use it at night time checks with all the kids.Merihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752883120541646427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-606637689904713685.post-53481415396629069222009-08-23T18:33:12.551-07:002009-08-23T18:33:12.551-07:00Sweet peaceful dreams to dear Elise.

The directions are here: http://www.childrenwithdiabetes.com/d_0j_20w.htm<br /><br />For a little one like Elise, mix the Glucagon in the vial as normal, but then use a regular insulin syringe to draw up and administer to her - kids under 2 years old get 20U, and kids age 2 to 15 get 10U per year of age (so if she's 2, you give her 20U of glucagon in the regular syringe).<br /><br />Of course, check with your doctor, since I'm not a doctor and I only play a pancreas in my own home and not on TV....but if you can keep her hydrated and her sugar from crashing, it may save a trip to the ER. <br /><br />Best wishes for a speedy recovery!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10735108106224821900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-606637689904713685.post-62149634605389115102009-08-23T13:41:54.407-07:002009-08-23T13:41:54.407-07:00Hope she gets well soon and the worst is all behin...Hope she gets well soon and the worst is all behind you!MaRiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14399306546638748952noreply@blogger.com
