hi all, my 3 year old daughter has just been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and well, i'm lost.
she's just been discharged from hospital and i feel as though i dont know what to do, i have given her all her insulin injections and BSL's for the past 24 hours but feel as though i've been overloaded with info and am petrified of making a mistake.
her BSL's are all over the place at the moment while we try to work out a diet plan for her, she's due another reading in 45 mins and i'm ok at doing it but scared if the result is too high or too low, that i wont know what to do.
i suppose you hear this alot though.
in hospital she wasn't eating properly because she saw it as an adventure (apart from the ingections) and wanted to be in the play room all the time, i brought her home and it's all caught up with her and she's zonked out in bed without really having a proper tea so i'm panicing!!!!
i know i'll learn and cope but until i do, how do i manage?????
