Despite your best efforts, diabetes self care is demanding, rarely predictable, neat, or tidy. It requires paying attention to detail, while trying to maintain a positive attitude - and sometimes you just don't feel like it. Perfection is not realistic or in our vocabulary, but you have resources. So lean on your circle of support, which includes us, and tap into resources when needed.
So if you find yourself between a rock and a hard place, just ask us for help so we can check out resources together.
The receptionists are so nice, helpful and knowledgable. They know how to download the pumps and continuous glucose monitors. They are really great.A Madison Clinic parent
