(879 posts)My oldest daughter was six years old when she was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes. As there was only one nurse who traveled to all schools in the district I was advised to home school because the nurse was not always at the school when my daughter needed an injection. As I was a working single mother at the time, this was impossible. The school secretary and her aide we taught to administer insulin shots at lunch time. All that was required was a note from myself granting permission. When we were in Virginia, Maryland, Georgia and Washington, the secretaries were trained to administer insulin and Glucagon in the event my daughter required injections of either. It is not illegal. There is no law against it.
As for the school librarian, perhaps we close the school library. Or we have parent volunteers and the children get their books.
