Episode notes

Back-to-school season hits different when diabetes is coming along for the ride.

In this episode of The Life of a Low Girl, we’re talking about navigating school with T1D from kindergarten through college: IEPs, 504 plans, school nurses, diabetes supplies, classroom routines, dorm life, and the quiet anxiety of handing care over to other people.

From advocating for what students need to helping everyone feel a little more prepared, we’re getting into the real-life side of starting a new school year with diabetes.

Because packing the backpack is one thing. Trusting the plan is a whole other emotional support beverage.
