Hello everyone.
My son ,Matthew,is nearly 8 years old and has had t1 diabetes since he was 3 1/2 years old.
He is generally well but does have ups and downs with his blood sugar levels.
He has a problem especially doing school work at home and at school where he really lacks focus on what he is doing. He has a real problem with getting things down on paper as he can't keep his focus on what he wants to write and also his teacher says that sometimes he doesn't get much work done in class as she finds him sat not doing his work at all as he seems to be in a complete daze(goodness knows how long he sits like this until someone notices), he has had his blood sugar checked when he is like this but it is usually fine.
This is something that was brought up by another teacher a couple of years ago but it seems to be an issue again. :O(
Is this something other parents have experienced or is it just a matthew thing?....
