  3. Juvenile diabetes n. Disease found in children brought on by eating too much candy. It can be cured by injections of insulin. And will be cured in about five years of any given time. NOT!!! What is Juvenile Diabetes? Type 1 diabetes is referred to as Juvenile Diabetes. Most commonly type 1 diabetes are diagnosed from infancy to late 30’s. In this type of diabetes the person’s pancreas produces little or no insulin. Their own body’s defense system attacks and destroys the insulin cells in the pancreas. http://www.jdrf.org/index.cfm?page_id=103442 http://www.juvenilediabetic.com/diabetes.html

  6. What do Teachers need to know? • The difference between High blood sugar /low blood sugar and what to do. • What to expect with High blood sugar : the child maybe sleepy, in lala land and often very thirsty and need to go to the bathroom a lot. • High blood sugar is treated by giving more insulin. • What to expect with low blood sugar : the child will act sleepy and are often hungry and shaky. • Low blood sugar should be treated immediately! Give the child simple sugars such as glucose tablets, fruit juice or regular soda. 3. Teacher should also know that kids with diabetes don’t want to be different. 4. TeachersshouldNEVER deny a child with diabetes request for water or a blood sugar test.
