[QUOTE="Stod, post: 54866, member: 14838"] Hiya Charlotte, I'm so sorry you have been having such a diifcult time coping with what for all of us, at some point or other in our lives, was the worst news we ever heard. Believe me it can get better. I've been T1 since my teens and I'm now 50. I've found that the way to deal successfully with things is to try and establish a routine. It know that sounds dull, but it is important for T1s. You have small children, why not try and create a daily routine based around your and their needs. If you can establish a pattern where you take your insulin when you should, and have a snack every couple of hours, combined with regular testing, you may start to achieve better sugar levels. If you achieve better control, then you will feel better mentally and physically. If you need support to try and do this, why not contact your clinic? Is there a specialist nurse and dietician who could advise you? Charlotte there have certainly been times in my life when I felt I couldn't cope with this anymore, but I always managed to pull through. I'm sure you can do the same. We're all behind you!! Best wishes - and take care... [/QUOTE]
