7 years we have put up with, tolerated the verbal abuse she has thrown at us. We've all been told numerous times, too many to count that she hates us all, told my youngest she wishes that she had never been born as it took attention away from her, told Hannah, my autistic daughter that she's...

Just a quick reply, my daughter has seen every therapist known to man. But she can blag for the best of them. Knows what to say to keep them off her back, knows it all. I'm sinking rapidly here, she hasn't changed, we had a huge row last night.. She did no checks yesterday, her numbers were...

I agree, there should be more.. I've read and been told over the years that the teenage years for a diabetic are the most dangerous years even for compliant diabetics.. Also winter and summer are when hospitals see more diabetics in a and e.. That was told to me by the a and e staff at Lincoln...

Haven't quite figured out how to send you a message yet!! But I'd love the details please. Draining, yes.... When Vicky was between the ages of 11 and 16, I fell out with her paediatric nurse... I was told I had to put Vicky first before all the others by this nurse, that even if the Hannah ...

I'm getting to replying to you all... But the dogs are running riot around the house at the moment!! We rescued a female patterdale cross who we didn't know was pregnant, she had 4 pups, we kept one, rehomed 3, but one was returned last week as the lady's other dog took exception to the pup...

When asked, all she says is I don't know, I forgot, the only support open to her now is adult mental health along with the adult diabetic team who say to me... She has to go to them, not the other way round... In regards to adult mental health... It's self referral.. Yes, I'm getting help.. I...

Un fortunately, this is the second times she's been in ICU whilst staying with him. After the first time, I gave him leaflets and talked to him. He thought her vomiting was due to her being unwell, her stomach pain due to vomiting and headache due to her vomiting. Since he'd seen her in a and e...

I'm not sure if coped is the right word , as I feel like I didn't... The past several years have been hard and I'm one who finds it alien to ask for help... Unfortunately over the past couple of years I formed an addiction that crept up without me even knowing , I just wanted to feel happy, be...

I have not read all the replies, but I will.... My head is still everywhere... I'm struggling to accept all that has happened and I know that may sound daft... But one minute I'm trying to accept the worst... Next... She's back... But one thing I will advocate... If you ever go through anything...

My apologies for not replying sooner... Everything has been so surreal, and I'm still trying to get my head round it all. It was the Saturday that I posted... That night was a bad time. I had to tell my 17 yr old son and my 12 yr old daughter ( there was no point then in saying anything to my...

I'm a single mum of 4... No family no close friends. My 14 yr old is autistic, I recently lost my driving licence . I was relying on a friend to give my lifts to and from the hospital. This evening... I opened my mouth without thinking after the events of today and spoke my mind about a...

Thank you all for your replies... I'm sorry... I'm at a loss for words as I feel like I'm sinking rapidly... I want her home.. To open her eyes... This feeling ... It's awful...it's surreal...

Aye, I know when ketones usually occur.. Forgive any thing I may say that offends as right now I can't think straight. She won't let me help, she's had all the help that can be given, always I'm told she's in denial, it's attention seeking... But when you have a child that refuses to take her...
