When my daughter was diagnosed nov 2010 (age 5) I bought a book diabetes through a looking glass. It really helped me and I still re-read parts now. It's hit all sorts of case studies in it. We also used sugar free tiptoes as a reward with Leah. Held the tiptop on her leg after injection gave...

Hi my daughter was diagnosed 23rd November 2010 then with coeliac disease 23rd may 2012. It may sound strange to say but after a whole things become normal and apart of every day life. Leah copes so well and takes everything in her stride. And yes she still plays up and answers back like any...

Hi I think in the end you just have to try and laugh it off its not easy to do. But others just dnt understand. I didn't till Leah was diagnosed. Then she was diagnosed with coeliac. And my man still try's to give her sandwiches or sweets. Leah laughs it off and says nanny I think your trying to...

It has made such a difference to Leah since she has been diagnosed with coeliac. It has been nearly a year since she was diagnosed and we only get tummy aches related to her B.G being high or low. I hope it's not but in away at least it can be managed and you then no what was causing the pain...
