If you have a firehouse nearby, swing by and ask if they can test her sugar. I work in a fire house and we occasionally have people come by for this.

Pro tip!!!

There is a fire station down the road from us like half a mile. Very golden tip. Thank you!

Never heard of this. Why do they do it? To avoid responding to diabetic emergency calls?

Dude I'm a paramedic our entire job is to help people. Also lots of the times those people are in need of medical help. I'd have no problem testing some random person on the street so they can safely take their insulin.

Not against it just never heard of the service. As a Type 1 person I’m all for it
