“My son has been living with diabetes for over a decade now. As any family of a young T1 knows, diabetes can be tiring for the child AND their caregivers. Camp Joslin has been the most amazing experience for our family. It’s one of the only places your child can go where almost everyone is just like them and understands what they go through. The friendships formed will create a network of other diabetics to share news with and bounce ideas off of even when camp is over. From the caregiver perspective, it’s one of the only places your child can go where you don’t have to worry about them! Turning that part of your brain off and decompressing is so valuable towards fighting caregiver burnout. You won’t realize how often you check blood sugar readings until you’re not able to see them anymore. I highly recommend giving Camp Joslin a try – you and your child will be happy you did!”  – Camper Parent
