[QUOTE="sweetbloodsher, post: 1667135, member: 367930"] Hello. Take a deep breath. You're only three months in. T1 is a long distance run, not a sprint. I totally understand, and was in panic mode after my own diagnosis. Spent a lot of time trying to learn how to be the perfect diabetic. You have been mothering your autistic daughter for 19 years, not an easy life, I'm sure. T1 has made it even more challenging, but I believe you will master this, too. You sound like a wonderful mother who is still initially in shock. I would try to find a T1 parents' support group. They may not understand your situation totally, but they can help with suggestions on how they have coped. Sometimes they have better advice than the so-called "experts". And I totally agree with the previous comment--you need to be sure to take care of yourself during this, both physically and emotionally. I'm convinced it will get better for you. [/QUOTE]
