Thanks Graham. We actually spoke a little on Twitter after you posted that article here a year or so a go. I’m really happy to hear your son is doing well

Oh true, those days seem like a lifetime ago. I am now writing an app to make remote monitoring easier for Sams preschool, but are planning on writing a scalable replacement to Nightscout soon. Also digging into the various algorithms would be fun.

There are so many ways that software can make T1D more tolerable, I am glad you have found some solutions for yourself too :)

In you post you've mentioned that if toddler refuses to eat you need to prepare food. Did you try to give juice? When doctors explained to us what to expect, they said this would work just fine and kids love juice.

Yeah, but if you give juice or other yummy things every time your kid refuses to eat, then you are just rewarding them for refusing food. It is a very stressful balance.
