[QUOTE="Jayden2407, post: 1873182, member: 478821"] Hi, Yes I totally get those days, anger is something that creeps up on me with my sons diagnosis, it used to happen more often than now because as you say you have to stay positive. Being diagnosed as a teen would be harder as they’ve already hit those years doing/eating normal things like their friends do then to have diabetes thrown in the mix I can imagine it would be tough. I have thought a lot about it as he’s getting older and I’m kind of glad he was diagnosed in primary school. He starts high school in the morning and I am worried about his control as I can’t just ring him like I’ve done over the holidays to make sure he’s done his injections. All though on the plus side he has taken to it quite well being diagnosed at 10 years old. Has your son left school now? How was his HBA1c now? I hope those good days out do the bad for your sons future. Try not to feel guilty as at 16, I would be reminding my son of the risks when he’s older with poor control. Take care, Janelle [/QUOTE]
