To most...Halloween is a crazy fun day....to a family with a Type 1 child....It is CRAZY all right. The costumes have to be perfect for the kids...the decorations "just" right...the trick or treating route mapped out perfectly. Oh wait.....what is her blood sugar, high...low.....what are we going to do with all this candy??!!??!!! WHY....is it necessary to involve candy or sweets in almost every holiday, every party, everything!!!
What do we do??? We make the best of everything. We get the costume, we do the decorations, we go trick or treating....we do what we can to make Life "normal" for our T1 children. They have a few treats.....and as a T1 momma...we cringe to think what those treats are doing to their little bodies and will likely get little sleep making sure they are ok.......we can sleep tomorrow..........after we hide or dispose of all the candy ;o)
