Study group will test blood glucose at least 4 times a day Each time the meter timestamps the reading. All meter readings will upload to the cloud via Myglucohealth website, where they can be accessed by caregivers, including providers and parents. Parents will be notified by device about the blood glucose testing results. Provider will set device to alert patient or patient's family or send alerts if uploaded numbers are outside an identified range (\<70 mg/dL \> 300 mg/dL). As per the standard of care, parents are trained to administer sugar containing liquids, or inject extra insulin for hyperglycemia correction. Parents will be encouraged to contact study personnel if they are concerned about the diabetes control. Study personnel will access home blood glucose monitor data, and provide insulin dosing advice. Parents will be asked to upload blood glucose readings prior to each visit.
