There is also a 'children and teenagers' forum down below so your youngsters might be able to find people their own age to talk to and to ask questions. Unfortunately I can't advise on how you cope, sorry.

Hi I am so sorry to hear of your two type 1 children. It must be like a minefield at times and feeling as though your head is spinning. I can't imagine what it must be like.

I know of a family with 3 type 1 children, I know the lady and 3 of her children have it, One girl and two boys, the most recent last year. They live about 10 miles away from me.
Have you spoken to your family GP for help and guidance with the medical needs as well as the emotional ones ? I hope , in time it will get a little easier for you all.

There is a parents section here, and the forum is so good for support and help. Take care.

Best wishes, RRB
