Hope your daughter is improving - it can be very worrying and frightening but you will all get there
Hello Louie and welcome to the forum There are plenty of mums on here whose children have type 1 and they will be along soon. In the meantime I suggest you have a look at the Diabetes Youth Club Forum as you will find a lot of information there. Here is the link to it: viewforum.php?f=16. Maybe your daughter will be able to look at it herself soon when she feels better.
