My 8 year old daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes 5 days ago. We were discharged from the hospital after 2 days. I am still in shock. We have no family history and I wouldn't have believed this would happen. She is doing ok. She is probably doing better than me!
I am having some trouble getting her to finish eating the carbs I have covered her for. Especially at breakfast. She doesn't have a big appetite.
She starts back to school on Tuesday. I am so anxious about her being out of my sight for such a long time. What if she doesn't eat all her lunch, what if the school nurse makes a mistake in her dosage. All these things are going through my head.
I haven't had much time to read much but I hope to be able to find out some real day to day advice from this site
