Hi Zara.

I'm Emma, I am from Britain and I was diagnosed with diabetes 4 and a half years ago, when I was 14. I know how scary it can be at first; it's really difficult to adapt to all the new things you have to do. After living with diabetes for this long I can tell you that I'm now healthy and doing everything that I dreamed of doing before I was diagnosed with diabetes. In some ways diabetes has even helped me, because it has made me so motivated to do well despite having it! And I've made a lot of friends because of my diabetes.

How are you managing your diabetes? Several injections a day? Are you adjusting your insulin based on what you eat or do you have a fixed meal plan? Do you get a lot of help from your parents in your diabetes management?

Hi Zara,
My daughter was diagnosed at 17 and is doing very well now! This is a great place to ask questions and find good information. Here's a book you can read online that gives good information about T1:
http://www.ucdenver.edu/academics/co...gDiabetes.aspx

Just scroll down to find the chapters and click on one you're interested in.

Take care!

Hi!

I'm Traci and my son is Connor. He was diagnosed when he was 7 and he's 10 now. This is a great place to come for support or just to speak your mind if something's bugging you.
