[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1514339, member: 32394"] Hi [USER=422054]@Missbee100[/USER] you don't have anything to feel guilty about, do try not to be so hard on yourself. I certainly think my diagnosis was harder on my mum than on me, and I was 25 so perfectly capable of looking after myself. Part of that might be because she was a nurse, so understood what it meant better than me. I'm sure your son isn't going through anything, apart from feeling loads better now he's got some insulin in him. Get hold of the book "think like a pancreas" it's a good guide to the basics of managing type 1 diabetes. Maybe have a look for JDRF events near you, it's a good opportunity to meet other families dealing with the same issues and you're likely to meet other mums who have been through similar emotions.
