Type 1 Diabetes During the Holidays
Life as a Type 1 Diabetic can be stressful around the holidays, but it shouldn't have to be!
Beyond Type 1 published a helpful article listing 7 ways to manage your diabetes during the holidays. Check out their suggestions below:
- Know your carb ratios
- Know what you're eating
- Bring a carb counting cheat sheet (check this one out from BT1)!
- Exercise in the morning
- Consider increasing your basal rate
- Go for a walk after you eat
- Test, test, test and keep track of active insulin so you don't overdose
Thanks to
Beyond Type 1 for always providing awesome resources for our T1D families!

Mistletoe Madness 5K - THANK YOU!
We'd like to thank all of the sponsors, fundraisers, donors, runners and volunteers that helped make the 4th Annual Mistletoe Madness 5K a success. Without your support & dedication, we would not be able to put on such a fun holiday event! The event raised about $8,000 - and we could not have done that without the support of our camper families and teams!
Event photos are available here, and race results are available here. If you have not yet picked up your finisher prize, please let us know and we can get that mailed to you.
Special thanks to
FleetFeet Huntsville,
Redstone Federal Credit Union, and CheckMates for sponsoring this year's event.
