[QUOTE="pickle76, post: 268709, member: 41367"] Hi, This is really hard to answer...what kind of relationship do you have with your daughter? Would it be possible for you to sit down with her and explain how worried you are and how her recent hypo scared you? Maybe she'd agree to checking her blood sugar a bit more and making sure she carried some sweets or Lucozade with her all the time. Maybe she's lost hypo awareness in which case this would be even more important. You must feel really helpless and worried about her. I was diagnosed at 17, and I know gave my Mum some sleepless nights! But until I took responsibility for myself and my condition there was only so much anyone else could do. I think a calm approach which makes her understand how worried you are may help. Small steps, you know? If she would agree to check her blood sugar a bit more and carry sugar with her, maybe that will lead to something else positive? Really hope you get on ok :thumbup: [/QUOTE]
