A statement no one can’t argue with “Diabetes is a f*%king nightmare” it Just depends how bad you personal nightmare is.
I think, in all seriousness, you are having to deal with (by proxy, for your son) Type 1 diabetes on a far more complex level than I certainly feel I have to - really do feel for you! I can only imagine the feeling of being 'different' at his age.
Have you thought about going on one of the diabetes.org.uk weekends [url= http://www.diabetes.org.uk/How_we_help/Care-events/Childrens-holidays/ ]Linky[/url]
househusband - he is going away next month for a weekend organised by the diabetes nurses from Redditch, Worcester and Hereford, approx 30 kids from 8-13, also a couple of guys with diabetes in their early 20's, hope he gets a lot out of it. Thanks for the diabetes.org.uk link
I went on a couple of Diabetic Camps when I was younger - absolutely brilliant they were...I'm expecting this course I'm attending next month to tell me similar things I learnt whilst at those camps. They were seriously useful...and great fun to boot!
