[QUOTE="Cornishpiskie, post: 397423, member: 73524"] My son was diagnosed a couple of weeks after his 5th birthday and he's been amazing in the last 4 years he's been doing his own finger pricks since age 6, and now does his own injections, he never argues about finger pricks or injections which has been a major help. He does however have a major attitude problem at times lol but I put that down more to the age than anything! He has his bad days very occasionally where he wishes he wasn't diabetic and his hypos hit him a lot harder lately although that's actually good in most ways as he feels them coming on when he's still in the 4's its just a shame it takes him longer to feel better after now. My main problem with him is he gets separation anxiety as he feels safest with me so we do get tears at school occasionally but I'm hoping he grows out if it! :))) Sent from the [url=http://www.diabetes.co.uk/app/?utm_source=sig&utm_medium=txt&utm_campaign=appsig]Diabetes Forum App[/url] [/QUOTE]
