Hi All,
I am a mum of a T1 diabetic son who is going to university in September. Does the community have any top tips for making the transition from home to studying and living independently in uni halls of residence as trouble free as possible. To add worry and complexity to this adventure, my son will be studying in America! I am trying to plan ahead and research as much as possible for him as he is in the middle of revision and A-levels and can't think about anything else at the moment. We will be making contact with the university health centre and a local specialist doctor/consultant to oversee him whilst he is there. But any other (however small) ideas, thoughts or suggestions or places where I/he can get support and information would be great.
