[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2459909, member: 53162"] Hi [USER=540383]@JustLucky[/USER] His parents will need to agree a plan with his school to help them to help him manage his condition, Diabetes UK has some useful advice here: [URL]https://www.diabetes.org.uk/guide-to-diabetes/your-child-and-diabetes/schools/school-staff[/URL] Regardless of his diagnosis the plan should be that he leads a 'normal' life and should not need to avoid/give up any sport activity, however he and his parents will need to learn as they go along as it's a pretty dynamic condition to start with and changes all the time, particularly with honeymoon phase - but a key priority will be to get a libre 2 or Dexcom as it will help him to see what's going on more easily and use this to learn about foods/insulin/patterns etc etc. Yes there's a lot to learn and we are all very different with t1, but be there and hold their hands as it will be invaluable to have your support through the months and years ahead.
