I'm mum. Maz. My daughter is type 1.
Please, I need help.... She's 18, diagnosed at 11, always run high, unstable, mismanaged whatever you want to call it.m
5 days ok, she went in to DKA THIS time bad.. Very bad... In ICU, on a ventilator , sedated, seizing, talk if brain damage, she won't wake... It's now day 5 of this... Only discovered she was seizing today.. But constant... Still 50/50 if she will pull through... If she does its how much brain damage.. Not like before when it was if... The numbers don't add up... On admission ketones of 3.2, blood sugars 16... Why ? Why has this happened ?? Last 7 years we have struggled to get her numbers lower.. Always run high, or in the teens or twenties... Insulin switched so many times... I'm at a loss... It's surreal... This can't be real ?
My daughter...
Please.. I don't know what I'm asking for here... I want her home, whole, ..
