“12:15am. He wakes me up to let me know our boy has a high blood sugar. He’s incredible. Even when he’s sleeping, he wakes up when he smells a problem with our boy. He then hops onto my bed and wakes me up. He beats the Dexcom CGM by 15-30+ minutes consistently!
Being a diabetic alert dog to a little boy is a lot of work and he does an incredible job. But his ability to continue that work at night when he’s sleeping is NEXT LEVEL INCREDIBLE. “

Dogs are awesome 🥰
We are aware that today's comments from the Education Secretary, @bphillipsonMP, regarding a complete prohibition of mobile phones in schools may cause concern for children living with type 1 diabetes and their families.

We want to reassure everyone affected by T1D that official Government guidance is clear. Schools have a duty to make reasonable adjustments where necessary, including for pupils with medical conditions. The guidance explicitly states that 'pupils with diabetes may use continuous glucose monitoring with a sensor linked to their mobile phone to monitor blood sugar levels' and concludes that it would not be reasonable for a school to prevent a pupil from using their phone for this purpose.
Here at Breakthrough T1D, we'll continue to engage with policymakers to ensure children with type 1 diabetes are safe, supported and able to manage their condition effectively. We will always advocate for the needs of our community.
