Hi everyone!
Next year I am taking two friends and their families with me to Walt Disney World. One friend's two year old daughter was just diagnosed with diabetes. We planned the trip for December, 2011 to give them time to get used to this. She will be three by then. Although I am a nurse and know the clinical side of diabetes, I do not have a family member with it, so I am not familiar with what challenges they will face and ways to cope with them. I know I've read that the restaurants are good at working with special diets if she needs it. I am also assuming they can use the baby care areas to give her insulin. Any other wisdom you guys can give me?
The other friend's wife has had a kidney transplant. I am not well acquainted with that at all. I am assuming she will need to stay well hydrated, so I am planning on shipping bottled water down to our resort. I also imagine she will tire easily. Any info you could give me on this would be great too.
