Katie has a job in London and Hannah is at college getting ready for uni.

I have had diabetes for 7 months now and am on MDI of Novorapid and Levemir. I am hoping to go on a pump soon to sort my levels out.

My mum loves this site and gets lots of help from it.

My mum is overprotective and she says she is like this because i am gorgeous!

Hi alex, lovely to hear from you.. Mums are always protective, you should have me as a mum, i still hold my daughters hand when she crosses the road.. nothing wrong with that i hear you say.. well no but she is 17!!!!!!!!

I have read that you are doing really well and are learning to manage things yourself, that is really good.

Enjoy High School
