CHECK DON'T GUESS!

We need to get all pediatricians, ER Doctors, and Urgent Care staff to ALWAYS CHECK BLOOD SUGAR when a child is showing the classic signs of T1D. DKA can come on suddenly and have deadly results when T1d is not diagnosed properly. A blood sugar check that would take less than 1 minute and cost under $2 could SAVE a child's life. We aren't talking scrapes and bruises here ... We are talking LIFE and Death! Please help educate and make sure that your pediatrician knows to always CHECK .. DON'T GUESS!!
