[QUOTE="leggott, post: 114673, member: 20065"] Hi, So sorry to hear about the diagnosis of your daughter. I have 3 children, 2 of which are type 1. My husband is also diabetic so we knew there was an increased risk that our children may get it. Nothing, however prepares you for the diagnosis and it did take me some time to come to terms with it. Having said that, things do get easier and once you get to grips with it, it becomes a way of life. Living with diabetes today is a lot different than it used to be. Medication and care is far better and there is no reason why your daughter should not live a long and healthy life. You must give yourself time to get over this. You will recieve a lot of support and forums like this are a fantastic as there are others who are and have experienced what you are going through. I hope you find this forum as helpful as I have. I have used it for advice, support and a shoulder to cry on. Leggott [/QUOTE]
