Diabetes

I got this off of Cafemom from a diabetes group that I belong to. This is the funnier side of diabetes. But everything in here is true it is what we have to go through each and every day. People when they find out you have type 1 diabetes one of the first things they say is "oh, you can out grow it" actually you can't. So anyway, enough of the serious stuff watch the video and read the words that go with it.

Lyrics---

Get up now Get up now you look pale to me

Check it now check it now we will have to see

Are you High? are you low? do you have to eat?

Check it now, do you have to pee?

Get your clothes, are you wearing that?

Wash your face Brush your teeth wheres your homework at?

Pack your lunch so you don't have to eat school crap.

Don't roll your eyes at me like that.

Quick eat so we will have the time to calculate the carbs.

Check your Bolus so that you will not go high and have to check ketones.

Remember that the endo is expecting you today at 3
we will get the good mommy test grade they like to call your A1C

Don't panic!!!

I'm sure that, your log book is here somewhere.

It just cant grow legs and jump up and disappear.

Have you changed your needle since last week?

I swear to your dad I will have to speak.

Don't forget to chceck before you eat.

How many carbs are in that treat?

Wheres the work you missed at school today?

What not, what's the problem, what did she say?

I'll laminate that 504 and nail that sucker to your teacher's door.

Don't test my patience!!!!

I'm sleep deprived I have no life, can't recall my last vacation!
So close the kitchen for tonight.

It's restraunt food no carb counts, hope I guess them right.

Grab your ball and skates it's time to go so we might be on time for once.

Get a juice and a snack so you dont go low.

Exercise is good you know.

Kick it high, Jump high, what an awesome catch.

strips and meter I will fetch.

Check it quick so that you can get right back.

Knowing your number's on track.

Each day is a blessing I give thanks for you, being mine.

The challenges are many, that we will overcome in time.

Get your shower and your pump shirt on, so we don't have an incident.

We can't afford to repeat last years pump in the toilet accident.

Brush your hair, Brush your teeth, get your PJs on.

Check your blood sugar now lets see what's wrong.

Have a juice, take a seat, get a cold wash cloth, get a HEY
Don't you pass ot on me!

Stay still untill your 103.

Have a rootbeer, twizlers, cupcake, snowcone, snickers, juice or milkshake.

So if all your friends-- eat a thousand carbs---would you eat them too?

If I've said it once I've said at least a million times before
that we'll get through all this, I'm proud of how you handel it.

How are your supplies at school, oh do you have strips needles too?

What were out of strips where is the Walgreens that's open nights?

I'll be right back make sure your homeworks done and in your pack.

Get in bed, get a hug, get a kiss good night, I'll check you at midnight.

Don't forget I love you **Kiss**

And today we will repeat again for sure, every day until a cure.

You can help us find a cure, give now give now give now give now.

We thank you. we thank you. we thank you. we thank you.

Find the cure, the cure, the cure, the cure---The cure ---The Cure.
