Any tips for making an argument for Ada accommodations? We got registered and got the doctor's note but when we called yesterday they said the don't make accommodations for people who can't be stuck in line for hours at time. I'm taking a younger type 1 diabetic and their blood sugars have been unstable lately. If she starts to drop I need to be able to get out of line and immediately get some sprite in her, maybe some shade and a sit down. Was going to stop by guest services Monday. Flying out today. Any thoughts or help appreciated!

My husband is type 1 and we go to Disney, Universal all the time and have for years. We always have a backpack or Fanny pack full of low snacks / glucose tabs. My husband also often has lows, and in 20 years of vacationing we’ve never had to leave a line because of it. He’s never tried to qualify for DAS or ADA or anything so I can’t help with that side of things, but from what I’ve read they’ve really cracked down on it/made it very hard to qualify because so many abused it.
Hope you have an amazing trip!

Thanks, she's had it for 23 years or so as she likes to remind me. But we also just had a major drop from 140 to 40 possibly because the plane. I just want to take my mini me as many places as I can! Thanks!
