Thank you all so muc, you are so wonderful, kindness and empathy always bring tears to my eyes (its easy these days).
Thank you so much.How strange it is to suddenly find yourself feeling more comfort and understanding from people you've never met than even from your friends and family?
#justadad kids are so resilient, thank god for that.How is your son doing these days?
yes water pollo is quite exhausting.His trainer was very supportive of the whole situation and keeps an eye of him, for which I am so grateful.
I will try my best to be as brave as he is...I don't want him to see me sad it would make him sad too...
Hi, my 10 year old was diagnosed in November 16. Like your son my boy happily tests and injects himself, rarely complains about any of it and has accepted it all. Me on the other hand, I have read everything and lay awake at night worrying what the future will bring. I was in such a state at the beginning and this forum helped me so much. He is still "honeymooning " so he is on barely any insulin. He is going on his school trip in 2 weeks but alas only staying for one night. He's happy with that and just accepts it. I can tell you it will get easier and it is relatively easy for them to carry on as normal. I remember our first trip to a restaurant after he was diagnosed, I was like a mad woman trying to count carbs etc. It's much easier now, each day is better. This forum helps so much, your not on your own and someone always has the answer. x
