[QUOTE="endocrinegremlin, post: 1412945, member: 196900"] The school cannot stop him from going. You say you keep testing him. How are his numbers? If he is stable then perhaps this can be turned into more of an opportunity? He is old enough to set alarms and check himself during the night if you are truly afraid but if he is managing most times overnight then I think this is a real chance to show him that diabetes can't stop him doing anything in life. I went away with the school loaded with snacks in case I went low and with my teachers having my mum and Drs' numbers in case I went low and that was...well jings to think about but 14 years ago! With technology as it is I'm sure you will be right 'there' if needed when it comes down to it. Perhaps ask about the wifi and phone signals to settle nerves? Ask who he's going to bed down with at night and if they have fears? Maybe you could get those guys together and have a wee chat before they head off? [/QUOTE]
