If your child has critical medical information that should be provided to first responders and school staff in times of need, please consider a Medic Alert ID. I ordered one when my son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, and it has given me peace of mind knowing that his important medical information will be visible to those trying to help in the event he can't speak for himself. The Medic Alert website has so many different types of ID's, your child is sure to find one that fits their unique style.
