Hello Paula .

Is your son using a pump or insulin pens ?
Would he prefer something bright , funky and colourful ?
Or prefer plain colour ?

If it's to go inside a school bag or something a pencil case might work. I've seen lots of people saying they use them and there are plenty of options.

Personally I can just abotu fit a pack of dextrose tablets in my meter case (lifescan one touch ultra) which is all I carry most of the time. I only caryy the pens if going out for a meal, and they stay in the case they came with. I do wonder about covering it in some more interesting fabric though as it's starting to look a bit scruffy.
 
Check out Genna Lee designs on facebook. She's a type 1 diabetic and a designer. She'll make a case to fit your sons kit and in any material. We're having one made for our 3 year old. Have a look.xx
