dave diagnosed july 1997
nichole diagnosed feb 2001
alicia diagnosed march 2001
loagn diagnosed 30th march 2010

its been an eventful few years .. my poor logan is only 2 and is really stuggling with me at injection times at the moment.. my girls were 5 and 7 at the time of their diagnosis ..they have lived with it for 9 years now and cope really well .. its my son ryan i feel for because with such a strong family history of diabetes he feels he is living with a time bomb.. he gets quite anxious at times. he is 12 now and asks me to test his blood at times to put his mind at rest ..
well this is my family and i just want to say hello to you all x

Hey Roz,

Welcome to the mad house, erm, I mean forum! I've been type one since I was five. Diagnosed in 1996. Ask anything you want, nothing is too daft to ask on these boards.

Heya Roz and welcome here. Like Tom, I was diagnosed in 1996 but I was 8 at the time. You'll be able to let all your stress out here 🙂

Feel free to ask any questions!
 
Hi Roz, welcome to the forum 🙂 You've certainly got more than your fair share there, but hopefully the knowledge you have gained will help you cope.
 
Hi Roz ..

Welcome to the forum .. the large extended family ... :D
Oh hun, you certainly have your hands full ... I'm mam to Nathan diagnosed type1 2007 aged 11 ...

A very warm welcome.
Wow, you really have got your hands full; puts things into perspective.
I should think we might be able to learn quite a lot from you.
Look forward to hearing more from you.
 
Hi,

OMG i cant imagine how having 4 to deal with is, i have 2, my son was diagnosed age 10 in November just gone and my daughter was diagnosed in February aged 2, we have a 15 year old son and are keeping our fingers crossed so i can empathise on how your Ryan feels.
This forum is full of good advise and info, welcome xx
 
Welcome.

Wow! That's a lot to deal with. Like Jimmysmum, I have two children with type 1 - age 6 and 5 - both diagnosed in the last 7 months. We're keeping an eye on our nearly-2-year-old and hoping she doesn't develop it too. It must be hard with one so small.

Looking forward to seeing you in the "parents" section.
 
Hi Roz, welcome to the forum.

Oh Poor you i believed I had it bad, My two girls were dx last year 10 days apart after having chicken pox the 20th and 30th March. Erin was 2 and Harriet just 6. I have been diabetic since I was 4.
We have one other daughter who is OK but I can completly understand the worry.
This is my first day on this forum and it is a real eye opener, I did not realise there were so many of us with more that one.
Are any of you pumping?
