My 81 y/o MIL lives with us. She is mildly diabetic, doesn't take Insulin. But she operates within a really, really narrow range of blood sugar and diet. We went camping last weekend for one night. My 21 y/o son calls me a few hours after we left and said Grandma was acting weird. We came home and she was acting like she was really really drunk. She wasn't. She hadn't taken her medicine and went to the supermarket and bought a danish, her blood sugar was 275. Medicine brought it back to 125 in a few hours. My point is that diet is really important.
