Everything and the kitchen sink

Katie is carrying SO many items with her these days.  The education we went to was awesome..they gave her a customized (glorified I guess) lunchbox.  So at least her needles are not visible, etc She carries in this little lunchbox:

-glucose monitor
-strips
-lancets
-lancing device
-carb counting book
-sharps container
-insulin pen
-needles for that pen
-glucose tablets
-snack
-logbook
-glucagon (sort of big container with her shot and glucagon for if she goes hypoglycemic)

and probably some other stuff I am forgetting.  She carries this everywhere with her.  To bed, to the store, to the car.  She can't leave it in the car because the insulin can denature in extreme heat or cold (it's a protein folks...and yes she knows the word denature..from me and her AP Bio class).

The goal is to do away with some of this stuff...the strips will still be there..the glucose monitor I believe becomes integrated with her pump but that means all new test strips..at all new $$$ and arguing with the insurance company.

Actually reading over her list I'm laughing b/c really the ONLY item she won't be carrying will be the insulin - I think..but then again- when she needs to bolus- then what?

This is a lot of stuff to figure out!
