What's In Your Kit? (My 1st VLOG!)

You, know....your "Sugar Box" (that's what we call it...Reyna calls it "Woodchuck", Meri calls it "Organized Chaos", Nicole calls it "Diabetes Supplies", Heidi calls it the "D Kit", Alexis just calls it "The Kit", and Lorraine calls it the "DIAPACK" -- love that!)

Basically, it's your diabetes supply carrying kit.

Last week I learned about a pretty cool opportunity to speak up and tell someone exactly what I'm looking for when it comes to managing our diabetes supplies on the go.  And guess what!?!?!

THEY WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU TOO!

In honor of this unique opportunity, Hallie and I decided to VLOG about our kits.

Yes.

I said VLOG!

(Lord, help me now.)

First, let me say that there's a pretty transparent post coming next week addressing my VLOG fears.  I faced them today because I love you guys.  I'm actually going through with posting it, because I was surprised at how motivated Sugar was to teach others about the tools of her trade.

She made me proud, my friends.  Watch on and you'll see why :)

(Seriously, YouTube...could you have chosen a better thumbnail?  Like, for example, everyone smiling at the end?????)



And there you have it!  Candy Hearts' 1st VLOG!  As you can see, I had a lot of help.  (There's never a shortage of help around here.)  

I realized after the fact that there were a few nooks and crannies in the bag that I didn't mention.  So, here ya go....here's a picture of EVERYTHING in our kit:


NOW! It's your turn!
Here are some details about the project,

We’re currently trying to understand the needs of people with Diabetes so we can improve the process and tools they use to manage their everyday lives. Whether it's monitoring blood sugar levels, administering insulin or logging records, our goal is to design a solution that will improve Diabetes care. Your thoughts will inspire our design and help us develop a great solution.

If you know anyone who has Diabetes and might be interested in helping out, then please forward this along.
