[QUOTE="leggott, post: 107403, member: 20065"] Hi, That's great news. It does get easier over time. I have 2 children both diabetic, ages 5 & 7. The school have been fantastic taking over their blood tests and injections. My son only started in September as well and even though my daughter is at the same school and they've been managing her, it was still hard when my son started. Like you, for the first few weeks I went up to test and inject, but now the school do it all. At the start I would worry all the time and panic if the phone rang, but now I'm pleased to say that I don't worry at all and everything has been fine. Mine usually have a small amount of fruit mid morning to tide them over until lunch and if they think they are low they just go to the office for a blood check. I find homemade popcorn a good low carb snack. It's cheap and easy to cook and even their friends love to have some when they come round to play. Leggott. [/QUOTE]
