[QUOTE="kegstore, post: 93684, member: 16530"] Yikes Saz that's scary but as others have said, unfortunately it does happen. My first real bad hypo took place at home aged 16, within 2 years of diagnosis. My Dad recalls that 4 ambulance men had to sit on me to restrain my flailing. When I got home from A&E I couldn't believe the destruction I'd wreaked in my bedroom! In the last 10 years I've now become completely unaware of hypo onset, and have the physical scars to show for the associated fitting. Had to give up driving too. :cry: Your top priority is the safety of your child, and these events "should" be the wake-up call your partner clearly needs, to take control of his diabetes. Which means he can't be left on his own with your son until he no longer presents a danger - to himself or others. He has to take responsibility for managing the condition more effectively, and demonstrate that he's doing so, but it's never too late to start. So short term it's alternative childcare while your partner re-educates himself. Harsh, but your only option I reckon? [/QUOTE]
