Welcome to the Forum!
We are glad that you are here, but we wish that we could have met under different circumstances. Your mom may be having a tough time accepting your diagnosis, but since it sounds like you are adjusting well, be strong and learn well and she will learn much from you. I would advise you to read and study all that you can on this/your disease. Many of us, who have had this for years, are still learning every day. I can tell you that I think that counting carbs, and adjusting your bolus injections to this, is key to well managed T1 diabetes. I hope that your dietitian and endo has already told you this. Good luck with your control and management. If you have questions just ask.
