[QUOTE="leggott, post: 109390, member: 20065"] Hi, Please don't beat yourself up about it. I don't have diabetes but my husband does and so do two of my children. They have seen my husband when he had a bad hypo in the early hours of the morning and I was trying to revive him. I thought they would get very upset as they too have diabetes and would know that that could happen to them so I tried to stop them coming in the room. In fact they did see and it didn't upset them and they've never mentioned it since. As your son was so young, he won't remember anything and as other people have said, kids are very resiliant about these things. Often it's the things that we don't worry about that upset kids the most, so please don't beat yourself up about something that was not your fault. If you look at the situation in another light, it shows how caring and mature he was to get you your lucozade and try and make you drink it. He probably did get a little annoyed at you for not responding and drinking it, but that again shows what a devoted little boy you have. It's only natural for you to think back to this moment as it show's how much you care about your son. We all think back to moments in our lives which have been upsetting, but time is a great healer and helps us deal with things that happen. You are both so lucky to have each other and at the end of the day that is really all that matters. [/QUOTE]
