Hi Everyone,
My wife and I have to travel regularly for work. Usually our nanny or grandparents help with child care. Since our 7 year olds diagnosis of diabetes things have been tough.
We were looking for a college or high school age kid familiar with ominpod and dexcom who would be looking to earn some extra cash by being available to help with pod and sensor changes.
Please feel free to respond if you know anyone in the DC , Maryland area who would be interested.
Thanks!
Just in case you don’t get a response please also contact the Breakthrough T1D Mid Atlantic Chapter Mid-Atlantic T1D Connections & Education - Mid Atlantic Chapter The volunteer staff may be able to help or you could find someone at one of their events.
If part of things being tough is all this being new the grandparents can try wearing the over the counter version of the Dexcom G7 themselves to gain experience applying the sensor and what makes it a little less reliable. You can order direct from Dexcom at the product website https://www.stelo.com/
