New to this forum,
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 6 months ago.
It has had its challenges and levels are still all over the place ups and downs like a yo yo,
The frustrations are immense and I think I become so obsessed with carbs and numbers and everything else with it that sleeping had become a thing of the past.
With christmas approaching and the fact that I have other children makes it really hard she will do all her daily injections but any extra ones like snacks she will refuse and add on to her next meal so if you offer chocolate or something like that to the other children she will ask to save hers for later.
My question is how do you as parents get around Christmas time when there is other children eating what they want when they want and potentially could end up with one child miserable watching everyone else being care free .
