[QUOTE="George_Henderson, post: 1337420, member: 342029"] Hi Sara, I don't have type 1 (I'm just a researcher) and sadly don't think anyone can take it away yet, but the most supportive Type 1 diabetes community I have encountered if you want to take a different approach is Type 1 Grit. [URL]http://typeonegrit.blogspot.co.nz/2014/03/thanks.html[/URL] They take a low carb approach which helps to manage hypos effectively so it may be something you want to look at in good time, once the diagnosis has sunk in. It will be different to what you've been told by your healthcare professionals and it takes a bit of work if you choose to take this approach as it may require changes to how you handle insulin doses with your daughter, but these people have experience of how to do this - there are over 500 of them in the Facebook group. Just ask to join and they will welcome you and your daughter. There are many parents there. It's something to consider as an option. [I]Edited by tim2000s.[/I] [/QUOTE]
