Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="NicoleC1971" data-source="post: 2319800" data-attributes="member: 365308">its just a rule that doesn't quite fit the circumstances!  The school wants to encourage attendance as this has a direct correlation to academic performance which is why they get measured on their attendance stats.On the other hand,  if you attend a diabetic clinic you may feel that you don't get a lot of choice about appointment times though  I suppose if your friend wants to avoid the loss of half a day of school she could try and shift those 3 monthly appointments to holiday times by asking the receptionist rather than waiting for a letter in the post.Also the child may be moved to 6 monthly appointments as she settles into her diagnosis and those appointments become much more routine i.e. can be delayed.</blockquote>
