[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 1666047, member: 372717"] To NoKindofSusie Why the ultimate failure? You'd have to move back in with family in Australia? Give up your job? I don't think your diabetic treatment will be much better (or worse) in Australia. Possibly a little more expensive, as diabetic supplies are subsidised rather than free? Since you've been diagnosed relatively recently I wouldn't be in a rush to make major decisions like changing jobs or moving countries, as your diabetes probably isn't stable yet and should be easier to control once you're out of the "honeymoon period" (when your pancreas occasionally produces insulin) and you're more experienced at managing it. Most T1s do manage to work out how to control their diabetes without sacrificing their lives. I truly believe you can too. Good luck and [I][B]Illegitimi non carborundum ([/B][/I]don't let the bastards grind you down[I][B]).[/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
