diabetics should have blood sugar between 70-100 closer to 80-90.  either she isn't taking her medication correctly or she is cheating by eating candy or something else sugary.  is she young?  i know its hard for a lot of kids to stay on their insulin and eating correctly.  if she can't get it under control talk to her endocrinologist.  its important she be honest about what she's eating.
