Hi, really need some advice from parents of type 1 children please, Our 11 year old was diagnosed end of February, and has now decided he doesn't want to eat... he thinks if he doesn't eat, he won't have to inject himself with insulin. I'm trying not to make it a big deal, and encouraging him with his favourite foods, but it's a challenge and usually ends up with him getting cross with me for "making him eat".... I'm sure we are not the first to come across this situation, and was wondering how you coped and got them through it... any advice you can offer would be really appreciated x
