For Cordelia this meant counting the money that she had to spend, and making sure that she had her purse and backpack packed with all of the necessary and backup diabetes supplies including her blood glucose testing kit, juice boxes and sweets for low blood glucose, her continuous glucose monitor receiver, extra insulin pump sets, and insulin syringes. She wasn’t old enough to go to Hogwarts yet, so while the older kids were getting all their school stuff, Cordelia was going around with her care worker looking in all the shops selling products that would be of interest to eight year olds. Her first stop was the candy store called Sugarplums. Cordelia ran ahead of her care worker into the shop, looking around excitedly at everything and smiling.
Look at that! They had jelly beans! The jelly beans were called Bertie Botts and it said they came in EVERY flavor! Cordelia was curious to find out what flavors were in the boxes that claimed to have every flavor. Jelly beans were the best! She was definitely going to get a bunch of these as low snacks. How many of the sugary beans were in each packet? How many jelly beans did she need to eat to get fifteen grams of carbs? Her tiny hands grabbed boxes of Bertie Botts off the shelf and placed them into a basket that looked disproportionately large compared to her small body. The larger hands of Cordelia’s care worker plucked several boxes out of the basket and back on to the shelves, as a reminder that Cordelia needed to limit herself only to what she had money for. Okay, maybe she would just get a box or two. Could she get more by saying these were necessary medical supplies?
