Hi Angela

Welcome. They are a lovely bunch of people here.

My daughter is nearly 11 and insulin dependant since 5 weeks old. She pumps and we are in East Sussex by the sea.

Are you on the Children with Diabetes email group? www.childrenwithdiabetesuk.org They are fantastic too.

🙂
 
Hi Angela and warmest of welcomes to the only place that combines experience, wisdom and more than its fair share of nutters 😛
 
Hi Angela,

Welcome to the forum although sorry you have to be here.🙂

My son is 12 and was diagnosed 2 years ago and uses an insulin pump as we can get better control. Join the list that Adrienne mentioned and you will be surrounded by parents of a type 1 child. It is a great place for advice and support and we meet up once a year and have a break at a caravan park - it is lovely to see the children make friends and feel that they are in the majority for a change.🙂Bev
 
Hi Angela,

welcome to the forum. I have two boys T1 aged 10 and (almost) 15. We live in Oxfordshire, too. Are you in the catchment of the JR Hospital?

Cheers
