[QUOTE="shelleyh, post: 1992897, member: 146418"] Hi I was diagnosed with T1 at 13 years old but things were very different back then. ( 41 years ago!) Once you and your daughter get used to recognising low blood sugar/ hypos it will become easier. She will have her own routine and get to know what she needs to eat or drink to increase her blood sugar levels. For me,at the age of 13, it became part of my life and I adapted quite quickly. I can honestly say apart from wanting to join the Police in the 1980’s, diabetes has not stopped me travelling, working and enjoying my life. Give your daughter the chance to deal with her condition as independently as possible but with a watchful eye from mum. [/QUOTE]
