Hi all!
I am annoyed with some of Alex's friends (actually their mums) - he went swimming to day with his dad and sister and all of his 'friends' were at the swimming baths - and they hadnt even invited him - i think its because of his diabetes because before his diagnosis he was 'one of the crowd' but since diagnosis he has been left out of parties and all sorts of things - it makes me so angry - all the mums have to do is ask me and i would tell them how to treat a hypo - or even be in the background as i realise that lots of people are scared of diabetes etc..
I probably wouldnt have let him go yet anyway as his levels go crazy with exercise - so a bit dangerous - it just makes me so sad that he is already being treated differently! Has this sort of thing happened to any of you and what did you do to overcome it? Bev
