[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 1526421, member: 53162"] Hello [USER=426571]@Secretx[/USER] Welcome to the forum, what a lovely friend you are. The best advice I can offer is to just be there for her, maybe mention it's cool and if she does want to talk then fine, but just being a non judgemental, caring friend is the best thing for her. If she's shy it probably means she could be embarrassed about it and wants to just be accepted as normal, each of us handle our t1 differently, maybe just mention what she does to treat her hypos, having a good friend is someone who can recognise when she goes low and needs glucose to treat it ? It might open her up to talking about it a bit more, but I do think she just wants to be as normal as possible so be prepared if she doesn't want to talk about it though. [/QUOTE]
