- Going back to school is challenging enough without adding type 1 diabetes into the equation. Here are my tips for making the back-to-school season a smooth transition!

This was so helpful I am a type-1 going into 7th grade and you has lots of great tips!! In my school no student is allowed to carry around a bag so I am one of the only students that is allowed to carry around a bag!!!!
Anna Waite Thank you! I hope you have a great start to the 7th grade. I'm glad to hear they have made an exception for you and let you carry a bag :)
Thanks!
Anna Waite ahhh same!!
omg! same!!!
what were your symptoms? i’m scared that i might have it:(
Thank you for not just saying American Diabetes as more often than not Canadians are being Diagnosed with type 1 at a rapid rate as well!
My teacher made me take a test and I was having the best time with my diabetes (says no one ether) all morning/day and I said I had the right not to take that test and he sent me down the office because of it
Brynna Whitney They’re not, but they do
Loved this video girl! This is my first semester having diabetes so this was very helpful!
Shelby Stephens Thanks!! I hope you have a good first semester and that everything goes smoothly :)
How did it go/ how is it going?
I was just diagnosed and I am entering school October due to COVID-19 so wish me good luck!!
Thank you. Really thank you!!!!!!! for made this video.
I have T1D since January of this year (I am 24 years old, actually) and, you know... I had to drop my studies temporarily because of that. Next year I plan to take them back! but there are still so many things I do not know and with which I fail, that I cannot help feeling grateful for all these useful tips. Really. It always makes me truly happy to find people like you, in which I feel I can support myself little by little and learn more every day. So thank you! Really, really thank you. And never stop making videos like this, because they all are great! 💕😊😊
(Sorry for my bad English, by the way. I'm not a native speaker but I try my best with the language).
Jo Jo Thank you for this comment, you are so sweet! I am so happy that I can help 😊❤️! I am sorry to hear you had to take a break from school because of your diabetes. I am sure that you will be able to start up again next year and that everything will go well!
Michelle Lord Yeah, well... I had to take a break from college actually, haha. 😄 And yes, it has been difficult to take the decision at first; but I tried to see it as something that was necessary for me, to be able to adapt me to this enormous change so... not everything has been so bad, at least. Or that's what I think.
I'm not going to give up with my studies either, so it's fine for me. Because just as my diabetes has come with difficulties, it has come up with some good things as well. 😊
So thank you! I am exciting and nervous for what it comes next year, but I know that everything will be okay. And I hope, and I'll pray, for it to be the same with you! Because you're incredible, and you really deserve it. 💕

I'm in the 7th grade and I'm hypoglycemic none of my teachers know cuz I've never gone to the doctor for it. I normally keep candy and food on me so I just sneak food.
what causes your hypos if you're not diabetic and how do you test and treat them?
SHE GOT THAT PINK BACKBACK FROM Myabetic!!!!!!.
I totally get you I'm always stressing about my work and my sugar always goes high because of it!
Never ever be ashamed of your condition. Generally kids are curious and if you tell them all about it through a presentation every year, and how to help, they will help you and know what to do.
I'm diabetic too, it's very stressful, but its part of life now...
Yes... I feel you but it can never ever go away and people say that we are just being overreacting.
@@klediapollo7064 well you can get very close to dying you know?
This was so helpful! I did not realize how easily blood sugar can be effected by something as small as going back to school. I have a relative who has diabetes and I will definitely be sending her the link to this video so that she can take advantage of these tips.
Wow! I find that a lot of girls with diabetes do dance! So interesting!🙂👍😀🙂
I’m in year 6 I’m so scared for comp it’s gonna be fine I guess....
This IS Such an Awesome Video I really Love Your Bag! Have A Good Day!
Excellent Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Patlarny Diabetes Ruins Principle (just google it)? It is a good one of a kind product for destroying diabetes minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin got excellent results with it.
Thx I’ve had diabetes since may 2020
I'm gown through it to
Don’t worry God bless you Madam.
Even if I'm high or low blood sugar during a test, I still don't have the right to not take the test. I don't know why but they still won't let me leave for the test, mostly because I'm neither American or Canadian so it doesn't apply here maybe. Love your videos Michelle!
Same, it's so annoying
Thanks so much for making this video. It was so helpfuul
i am 9 years and have type one thank you now i feel like i am not the only one
I was just diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and i'm going back to school on Tuesday, i'm pretty nervous about going back because I get very stressed out and it's really just, uGH but this video was very helpful and I want to thank you so, Thank you! :D
Aww don't be nervous. I'm sure everything will go fine! I'm glad the video helped :)
This is going to help me so much especially in middle school thank you so much :]
Great work Michelle. Love seeing your videos come out.
Thank you Erik!! :)
I got diabetes in school I got Daddy for my dad I went to the hospital if I had diabetes type 1 and I was sick 🤢 you can get you some food and thank you
Thank you for all your helpful tips! I always keep a low snack with me, but I never bring my Dexcom receiver in class because I’m afraid that it will vibrate in class. Do to have any tips for keeping it silent during class? My class is often super silent and even the vibration would catch everyone’s attention.
I also did not like having my Dexcom in class for this reason. I actually used to turn off the alarms on my Dexcom when I was in class and just looked at the receiver every so often. However, turning off the alarms really defeats the purpose of the device, so I don't recommend doing that (especially if you can't feel your lows). Maybe you could talk to your teacher/class and explain what the device is, and warn them that it may vibrate from time-to-time? That way people won't make a big deal if it happens to vibrate!
I agree with Michelle with it defeats the purpose of the device. But, that’s what my parents and I did for me. I know it could be nerve wracking it vibrating or telling people you have diabetes and explain what it is. So, i don’t use my receiver since I have the tslim pump and the dexcom. For your case, I’ll keep it in my pocket or in my book bag pocket and keep your book bag near you, and keep the zipper halfway.
I’m allowed to eat my snacks in class (well I’m supposed to be) and I miss math a lot because of lows. I thought since I could eat my snacks in class that would help, but the nurse is making me eat them in the nurses office and now I’m failing math. She also pushes me to do my own shots and I’m not ready. She also gave me extra units of insulin that I didn’t need apparently but after I found out and told her that she said “I know”. She’s a T1D herself and I just thought that things like this were kind of ridiculous in my opinion. Thoughts???
I would be telling your parents or the principal! You should not have to be missing so much class! That's crazy.
Michelle Lord My parents know about all the situations, including one where I missed my whole lunch period and part of gym because she was out at stores and town buying decor and stuff , so I couldn’t eat dinner until 2 hours after school was out because I have the last lunch. She also does my shots in a sensitive part of my arm(towards the very very back) and it hurts and I’ve told her but she just darts it into my arm😑 My parents and I have been thinking about homeschooling me. If this happened to you would you consider it? I’m only 3 months into my being diagnosed
Aww that's so bad! I've never been in your situation so it's hard for me to say.
I would probably look into switching schools, where they can accommodate you more, or maybe homeschool. But first, I would schedule an appointment with your parents and the principal about the situation to try to resolve it before leaving your school. You probably have all your friends there, and it would be hard to leave :(
For bags, can I recommend Myabetic? Oh wait I just heard you say u had myabetic
when i feel low i do check my blood surgers i'm in collage but not as often i'm probably getting the dexcom g6 how do you deal with people asking and how do you feel and i just got a new bag wich is the one of those small backpacks i got it from my bestfriend
What if I don't want other students to know that I have type 1 diabetes
I personally feel it is much easier to be open about your diabetes at school, but of course it is your decision. I have a video about having confidence with your diabetes if you want to check that out :)
Michelle Lord what is it called
It's called "Having Confidence with Type 1 Diabetes":
czcams.com/video/RK6yFLe4Z7w/video.html
I feel the same way.. But if they think that you are different and have an disability they are wrong. Diabetes is just a medical issue. If they think bad about you then that's their bad then that's their wrong. DO NOT Care about what others think! Their is someone out there who will understand and like you for you not because if your issue. I have type 1. Just be you.
Hannah Miller type one is technically an invisible disability
Great tips Michelle!
Jumbo Tumbo thank you!!! And thanks for your amazing acting ;)
That's great!! Thank u!!!!
I have diabetes 💗🏹
Thank u
Great Video, well done!
My teachers all know and they took a training course if u pass out so
Thank you... I'm a 50 year old Type 1 diabetic but I love your content and I really appreciate the 15% off Myabetic :)
Amanda Mctyre Thanks so much!! I'm glad you like it 😊
Wait, so that means I'm disabled?
i got diagnosed this summer and go back to school soon, any ways to keep my phone on me discreetly? my school doesnt allow phones so i dont want to draw much attention to it
It’s so funny cause on the first day of school I have a mini backpack purse for my kit of supply and poeple who don’t know me say why you always carry that bag me diebetties want to know more lol
I have to get checked before any test because me being nervous makes me high
Nice
Michelle, good job. For reals! 🙌
Thanks Ali!!
Everyone reply with what pump you have and what pump you want, i have a tslim and i want a omnipod
Leodell Rogers omnipot
Omnipod
if you don’t mind me asking, what were your symptoms when you were diagnosed with diabetes? i’m rlly scared i might have it :(
Can't wait to see more videos.
heather90ann Thank you! :)
where did you put the bomb in the ballet outfit?
This hacks are very helpful, but having 1,5 years diabetes arw hacks that I know but don't use that much..I have the Medtronic insulin pump 630g, and all I take with my are jellies for lows and my meter.These days I don't even check my bloodsugar, because I have made them to be to a normal diabetic number, so I usualy don't have lows or highs..To school I have even done a presentation about my pump, and I am very confident and open with that..I don't even take it as a problem, sometimes I even forget my meter or don't check at all, and it's totally fine because I am not the type of person that wake uo with a 300..Also, at school, when I have a low or high I don't make it a big deal I don't even tell it to my teachers, I am old enough to handle and even though I tell it nothing will change
Everyone handles their diabetes their own way :) . I'm glad you are doing so well!
i wish i was well educated about my diabetic instead of the seeing different doctors I would like to see one doctor about my diabetic it is getting so confusing
Where did u get the baggggg I really want to know
I love this!! 👌
Thank you
This was a great video, for university i actually plan my classes with meal times in mind. Ps i like your burgundy bag, im currently looking for cute and comfortable back pack for school to fit my supplies and books . i haven't used a back pack since 2nd grade so its hard to choose. Would you recommend that one?
bitrswtcookie99 That's a great idea to plan your classes around meals! I'm really liking my purple backpack so far. It's from lululemon 😊
Michelle Lord Thanks ! Ill check them out
Do u get special treatment from teachers
Hey michelle, i also have type 1 diabetic and need insulin injection..my teacher dont know i have type 1 diabetec..so my teacher always get angry to me because i always need to go to toilet and do insulin injection..what should i do ?
I LOVE LOVE LOVE MYABETIC
Great vid Michelle! Hilarious scene with the girl cheating off your test during the Disability Act section... lol!!!! Also, finding the spent strip in your hair. My God, I find them everywhere!!!
Haha thank you! I'm glad you can relate to the strips :)
i heard its expensive to have diabetes in usa, here in sweden everything is free
I'm American an have state health insurance and not private. I am only allowed needles and vials of insulin and a regular blood testing monitor, no pump. I also only see a normal doctor once a month, no endocrinologist. I desperately want better health insurance but can't afford it. 😢
Great advice Michelle . Just did not understand the equation on the black board , LOL .
Thanks! haha don't worry, I don't really understand it either :S
I had that same myabetic bag and I regret paying $160.00 for it. It fell alert fast and wasn't sturdy
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear that :(. So far mine is holding up fine. I would contact the company, I'm sure they would want to know about what happened to your bag.
Michelle Lord they gave us a refund. It was very accessible and easy to use(and cute).
Uhh none of my teaches let me do that I have to go to the nurse if I need to eat or check my level
What grade are you in? I know if you are in grades 1-6, a lot of schools prefer that the student check their blood sugar at the nurses office. I guess this video is aimed more towards high school/university :)
I like your vedio
hey i am from pakistan please say hi to me...i am also type 1 diabetic ☺
Hello ishmal
Cute video Michelle!
Glitter Glucose Thanks Paloma
Your dress is so beautiful
Thank you!!
What pump and cgm are you on?
I'm on Medtronic and Dexcom :)
+Michelle Lord omnipod and Dexcom g6
Can I have one I'm a type one diecbetece
I’m Australian
emily johnson good for u
i had a professor make me leave class so I could drink water during a high sugar and I missed half of class despite having gone through the disability services at that school at the start of the semester. guess their carpet was just too important?
Got in a mad argument with my relief teacher because I need to keep my needles on me so people don't mess with them.... later realised I was diabetic
Oh yeah? I've had a couple incidents like that with teachers. They usually end up feeling really bad when they realize I'm diabetic :p
what were your symptoms? i’m rlly scared i might have it?
Pure Charm mine were,
1. Drinking A LOT of water
2. Going to the toilet what seems to be more than you drink (#1)
3. Getting really tired.
The symptoms can be confused with going through puberty but better safe than sorry. I would seriously recommend just getting a test at your doctors to find out before it is a problem (diabetic coma). I was diagnosed almost 4 months ago and I am 15 years old.
I felt like I had to pee a lot, I also had oral thrush (super gross, I know). If you are really concerned, you should go get tested. It's a very easy and painless test, and it will at least give you some peace of mind.
Michelle Lord I’m young , idk what an oral thrush is ahah . what is it?
Have you looked into afrezza inhaled insulin
Gil Rock I have heard of it, but I have never looked into using it myself.
Fluid flow equations? You a math's student?
attila Szabo Physics 😊
You need your meter and insulin
Someone tag the dale tribe
I'm type 2 diabetic and this is still help ful
Thanks, I'm glad it is helpful to both type 1's and type 2's :)
I have type two diabetes it's pretty hard😞
was that newton backward interpolation ?_? that video is little funny but good and i like that bag i want that kind of bag but they all look as they r made for girls and also i m from India :)
Sandeep Mehra It is the Navier Stokes equation! The backpack comes in black too, but yes, the style is definitely more feminine.
wooow that goes over my head i m not that maths person u r cuz i m just abnormally normal person i think both of u had cool teachers not like here hot head teachers and one do u know any other brand which make bags like that which i can get here cuz i need one my laptop bag is ancient now it's like backpack from 1500
Is it sad that I make jokes about my type 1 diabeties at school?
David Brach
Nope. I’m type 1 and I do too
first of all, who uses chock boards anymore?
