My 9 yr old was just diagnosed Saturday with juvenile Diabetes. He is being so strong adapting to this sudden change. So glad I found this app.

Welcome to the Forum!

I am sorry to hear of your son's diagnosis. I have been where you are. Learn all you can about your son's condition. Make sure that you have a diabetes team in place (Endocrinologist, Diabetes Educator and Nutritionist). Look for a Diabetes Support Group in your area. Learn to count carbs, it works.
