[QUOTE="Smitten73, post: 658839, member: 114243"] Hiya I dont really want to take over jsmums thread but no, he isnt bullied at school and his friends are really supportive. He is in his final year secondary and gcse's are looming. He takes himself off to do his injections and testing as he doesn't want anyone 'not in his circle' to know his business. You mention a pump probably at the exact same moment he called me into his room expressing an interest (after 4 months of not wanting to discuss the matter at all). He was offered one right in the beginning, the day after diagnosis but flat out refused. I do feel like mine and his relationship, probably the same as jsmums, has turned into a diabetic relationship too much. Kind of like its hard to think and talk about much else. I did want your advice on how to not do his head in about this. Like, what not to say to keep from annoying him too much? Its hard to step back when you worry and love them so much, especially when its only been a few months. He didnt test at school today AT ALL. Thats the first time that has happened. I don't want a battle. [/QUOTE]
