I'd gotten some handouts from a friend years ago after Steven was dxd, the ones for teachers. At the bottom they said Childrenwithdiabetes so when we finally got internet I checked it out
 Really wish I'd had it after he was diagnosed. Imagine what it was like for people before there was CWD

Looking back, I see I joined 8/14/07, Samantha was diagnosed 8/1. I think I found it by accident..just searching on the web. Thank God I did!! Can't imagine life without CWD.

At the hospital when he was diagnosed he got a blue backpack full of info and stuff and it has the CWD website, one touch and Animas printed on the outside.
I'm so glad I found this website. Reading the post on this forum have not only helped educate me to a detailed level you don't get from the doctor but it has saved my sanity more than once.

Willow was dx 2 days I think - I needed someone to talk with and my DH was not working . . .(although he is Type 1) he was not nearly as emotional as I was and I really needed the support. 18 months later I still use this site more than any other D site out there. I have been to almost all of them that I can find with a google search and always end up back here . . .

Google
For some reason, this is the only diabetes site I found. I've heard others around here mention other sites, but I've never looked.
