Many of you out there are much more experienced with swimming and diabetes so if you would like to offer your experiences here please feel free to do so. We are still fairly new to the pump so it was our first experience with the pump and swimming. As many of you know there are so many benefits to excercising and diabetes and after Joshua went swimming today he had a great BS reading. He was 106 after his time in the pool. We have been taught that when he swims we unhook him and it is safe to remain unhooked for up to an hour. They also said the more comfortable we feel with swimming and the pump that when the hour is up we can also hook him back up, take his BS and give him his correction or dose and then unhook him again. I think they might have said something about a snack in there, dose and then unhook again. I know there are many more of you out there with much more experience and I would like for you to post how you handle your swimming time. We have an entire Summer of swimming. Also, Joshua was recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease. We are currently transitioning him over to the gluten free food so recipes are very welcome here on the site. Welcome everyone to Joshua's Generation Blog. Look for our up and coming website as well. I will post the address once we get it up and running.
Have a great diabetic day!! Good Luck with the BS"s.
