[QUOTE="therower, post: 1750687, member: 47983"] Hi [USER=470639]@IC_81[/USER] . Sorry to hear of your sons recent diagnosis. I was fortunate to be diagnosed in my 20's and have no real experience of diabetes and those teenage years, which will be upon you soon. We all find and have our own ways of living with diabetes and I'm sure your son will figure his way. I believe that being a T1 diabetic is something to be proud of. It's not something that has to be hidden away. Make it part of your family life in a positive way. Use it to motivate not only your son but the family as well. You will find so much of diabetes is numbers and ratios and timings. Don't become obsessed with all of this, yes it's important, but life, laughter and love is far more important. Find that balance and you will be okay. [/QUOTE]
