Hi! I'm 10 years old and have had Type 1 Diabetes for 3 months today! I am looking for Diabetics to talk to, aged from roughly 9 - 11. I know I sound judgmental when I say that, don't judge!! Anyway, I really want someone I can relate to and chat with, however, the only other diabetic I know is a boy in the other class in my year at school. He has had Type 1 since before school and is on a pump, whereas I am on injections so don't feel like I can relate to him in any way. I know all this info is really forward of me but I really am desperate for someone who knows what I am going through is like to talk to!! If you want to chat, just say! :)

Hey Ruby! My name is Grace and I've been diagnosed with diabetes type one recently too. How were you diagnosed?

Hi Grace!
I had the usual symptoms of diabetes, so my mum took me to my GP and he diagnosed me and told me to go to hospital.
How were you diagnosed?
