[QUOTE="Missbee100, post: 1514315, member: 422054"] Hi, My 9 year old son was diagnosed a week ago after being rushed to hospital.... Being diagnosed as a type 1 diabetic has been an absolute shock & when we are all still Coming to terms with. My son is now home and doing extremely well, I am so very proud of how he is dealing with everything. I however am struggling to come to terms with his diagnosis.....it's not something I allow him to see as I want him to remain upbeat and positive, but I am struggling with guilt, anger, sadness and I can't seem to shake these feelings I also feel guilty for feeling like this as it's my son who is going through it. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or has these feelings? It's really quite overwhelming I have to say I have a new found appreciation for diabetics It is life changing Any comments or encouragement would be so gratefully received right now as I am feeling rather alone Thank you [/QUOTE]
