What do you give a diabetic that is having a low blood sugar issue?

If they are having a reaction (blood sugar levels dropping well below where they should be) you can give them glucose tablets, Orange Juice, peanut butter and jelly sandwich, chocolate milk etc. Be careful you don't give them too much sugar though because you can send them too high and be right back into the same position that you are in. They sell glucose tablets everywhere, they are relatively inexpensive and not a bad thing to have on hand if you are dealing with a diabetic who can drop at anytime.
