[QUOTE="MamaIzzy, post: 2374963, member: 539614"] Hi Searley and thanks for the welcome, though I totally get that no-one wishes they were here.... I am just beginning to learn how many variables are going to effect her readings and that is what makes me slightly apprehensive. Given that we have been in lockdown since she was diagnosed (and the first week after coming home from hospital she basically slept) she hasn’t really done anything other than a few shortish dog walks. No time with friends/sports/schooldays to speak of and when all that does happen she will be thrown in a the deep end as she is a boarding school. Hence why I am a bit nervous.... Her DSN seems very nice and is supportive about getting things in place at school re her meals being carb counted, as that is the area that concerns me the most. I have hypo kits in each car, at home and one to grab as we head out of the door. I’ll make sure they are dotted around school as well so she doesn’t have a 15 minute walk to get hold of one. I know we will get things wrong and mistakes will be made, it just feels scary that those mistakes can have an impact on her health. She has two older sisters and fortunately this is the first health issue we have ever encountered. [/QUOTE]
