Timesulin is for parents of children with diabetes
Two parents managing one child with Type 1 diabetes
When two parents are caring for a child with diabetes, communication is crucial. Knowing who is responsible for what and at what time cannot be left to chance. While every family has their own routine, it can be a great comfort to know exactly when the last injection was given so that double doses and missed injections can be avoided. Knowing when the last injection was administered can also be crucial when making choices regarding food or exercise. Parents worry about their kids whether or not they have diabetes. Timesulin can help you worry less and live a little easier.
Diabetes technology without a user manual
Have you heard the expression “so easy, even a child can use it?” With technology changing so quickly, it’s often the children helping parents learn new technology and not the other way around! Well, we designed Timesulin to be so easy that even parents can use it! Just replace the cap that comes standard with your insulin pen with a Timesulin cap. When the cap is removed to take an injection, the timer is automatically reset. Oh, and you can take the cap off briefly to see how much insulin is left without affecting the timer - we thought of that too! Read more about how timesulin works here.
Teaching your child to take their own injections
“Did you brush your teeth this morning?”
“Did you wash your hands before supper?”
These are questions asked by all parents that are beginning to teach their children to take responsibility for themselves. Teaching your child with diabetes to take responsibility for their injections and blood sugar can be an enormous challenge. Afterall, the consequences of missing an injection or double dosing may be impossible for a young person to understand. At the same time, you just want your child to live a normal and healthy life. Part of this means teaching them and giving them the confidence to manage their own diabetes care until we have a cure. As your child begins to take responsibility for their own injections, Timesulin can be an excellent way to verify that your child is taking their injections on time and make both of you worry less. More importantly, for a child ready to start giving their own injections, it can be a great confidence booster fto see and be able to show you that they took their insulin on time.
