Hi, you have come to the right place. The people here will support you and your daughter and then some! I have a 10yr old diabetic daughter who has been through this like your daughter. So I know exactly how you feel and the helplessness and grief you are experiencing. It gets easier it really does because they get more accustomed to the way of it. Unfortunately we learn to live with it and the why me moments are fewer rather than regular. My daughter has not allowed it to keep her back. She does school trips, swimming, sport, play dates etc. It's about giving her confidence and control of this condition so that she can deal with things when they arise. Because your daughter will be the most intelligent person there when it comes to her own diabetes. When it comes to visits to other children's houses I reassure the parents that I am only ever a phone call away. They are not on their own so she can play and eat at their house. But this is a journey and you are at the start of it so cut yourself some slack. We were offered a chance for my daughter to talk to the psychologist, if you can get her an appt I would take it. Let her vent, it may be easier to a stranger. But we are all in this together, so drop in when you need it. X
