Rachel Morgan is a tenacious type 1 diabetes mom who did not give up when doctors instructed her to discontinue using her son Henry's insulin pump and continous glucose monitor becasue of his severe adhesive allergy. Instead she turned to the diabetes community online and found an answer to Henry's serious problem - this ain't no contact dermatitis. Be sure to read Rachel's guest blog post on Arden's Day to see Henry's rash and find out how they relieved it. It is a fantastic read for anyone who wears a medical device that uses adhesive.    show notes: Rachel's guest post on Arden's Day Children With Diabetes Friends For Life 2015 Blood Ketone Meter Rachel mentioned Arden's Rash story Arden's Day Juicebox Podcast Life Is Short, Laundry Is Eternal: Confessions of a Stay-At-Home Dad Social Media Follow on Twitter Juicebox Podcast - Arden's Day Follow on Facebook Juicebox Podcast - Arden's Day Follow on Instagram Juicebox Podcast - Arden's Day My Disclaimer
