Hello,
I found out yesterday that my mum who is 44 has type 1 diabetes.
She is really struggling to cope and I just don't know how to help her.
I don't fully know how being a diabetic works all I know is 'its a lifelong sentence' or so I keep reading everywhere!
I understand she will have this forever but I want her to know I'm here for her and what ever she needs I'm there but I don't know what he needs..
My mum is a very reserved kind of person and keeps a lot of feelings hidden and I'm worried she isn't dealing with her new diagnosis very well. She has spent most days since she was told, in bed on her own.
I want her to know it's going to be ok, but I don't even know myself if it is going to be ok.
Please help me help my mum.
