We are planning a WDW trip for this August. It's not our favorite time of the year to go due to the heat, but it's the only time we could make work with our college-aged son and his girlfriend and their summer work schedules. We have an extended family member that was interested in coming, but they've since gotten cold-feet due to their Type I Diabetes. This person uses an a Novoject insulin pen, and the instructions say that the pen must be kept below 85 degrees. The family member thinks that a week of eating out in the parks and having to take their pen out in the heat "won't work".
My wife and I are not diabetic, so our knowledge is limited on the subject, but I suspect that Southern Type I Diabetics have likely come up with working strategies that allow them to enjoy time outside of the home without worrying about spoiling their medication. Can anyone in a similar state share their experiences? Thanks.
