Kidney & Diabetic Communities Emergency Preparedness

The documents i found were published by the American Kidney Foundation.  They are geared towards Kidney patients on dialysis or another rigorous treatment, and, includes specific considerations for Diabetics.

This includes a .pdf booklet containing a Menu/Shopping list for 3 days.  The foods are easily obtained.  The objective is to meet basic nutritional needs without stressing your kidneys, raising your blood sugars.  There are instructions for Sheltering in home, in a "Shelter" or even at a Dialysis Facility.  Notations on how to prevent your body from building too much waste, and stay stable until you are able to get your medications or treatment you need.
