[QUOTE="Robynsmum, post: 333716, member: 53492"] Hi all, This is a first for me, I've never posted on a forum before! My 8yr old daughter was diagnosed with type1 diabetes 2weeks ago. She has been so brave and I am so proud of how she is handeling it all. She understands the whys and what fors and despite really hating the injections she lets me do them without too much fuss. I completely understand that her little world has changed and I dont want to push her too far but I have been told to encourage her self manage. I am eager to get her to at least do her own blood sugars, any hints and tips on how to do this would be gratefully received. She is just refusing to at the moment. Luckily I work in the school that she attends and have been able to do it for her so far but I imagine that she will become more confident and feel in control if she just takes this step forward. Many thanks x [/QUOTE]
