Diabetes

I have diabetes.

I take 2 shots every day and I do 4 blood tests too. I do my own blood tests, and I can do my shots, but my mom or dad makes up the shot.

I don't eat sweets. That would make my number go up too high.

Sometimes my number goes too low. I get shaky and sweaty. I drink orange juice, and then I feel better.

I eat food in my 5 food groups: grains, vegetables, fruit, dairy, and meat.
