[QUOTE="lindijanice, post: 1693828, member: 446215"] Hey [USER=468598]@gog1978[/USER], welcome to the Forum - you will find much good info and support on here. Perhaps you would find the article on diabetes burn out a good read....from the sounds of it your year was pretty rough...We all experience it from time to time....take a deep breath and tell yourself, this too shall pass.... As far as your concern for your little guy, it is quite natural to have those feelings/fears....none of us are immune to them....we want our children to never have problems or hurdles to cross, but life isn't like that is it? The best we can do is love them, care for them the best we know how, show them how to face whatever life throws at us with determination, fortitude and a sense of humor is helpful too:) You have managed your diabetes and my guess is that if that should occur for your son, you will be there to walk the journey with him and impart your vast knowledge to him so he can live a full life with diabetes. That sounds pollyannaish to some, I am sure, but it is the truth....you can either become bitter or better with the conditions, diseases, hardships life gives you....I am a three time cancer survivor and worried that my children might have cancer as well.....we talked about it as they became adults - their reply? We know how you did it, Mumsie, and we can face it too with that fighting spirit you have had....Blessings/L [/QUOTE]
