[QUOTE="jowrich1, post: 391752, member: 65546"] To Oscar's mum - MrsDMiles My son has just been diagnosed recently and he has just turned 3, so I think I can empathise with you. There is no history of diabetes, however I have an underactive thyroid and both conditions are auto-immune. He has dealt with the whole diagnosis brilliantly and my family have adjusted well. I am a neonatal nurse myself so I guess I've taken to the medical side of things much easier than most would. Jake has been given an insulin pump (2 weeks post diagnosis) and that has been an amazing thing for us. It gives a sense of freedom as Jake can eat as much or as little as he likes and as often as he likes as we can give very specific doses of insulin for the carbs he has had. I want to send you my thoughts and love, I'm here if you need a chat as our children are the same age. Keep your chin up, that's to all of you!! Blondie, yes one of the stages of grief is denial!!
