Much the same here. After fourteen years of needles I've swapped, finally to pumping. I go live on Monday. Jabs are good up to a point if you're willing to live a somewhat regimented life that is controlled by the clock for your basal insulin. That's something I'm none to keen on. The sooner kids go onto MDI the better. I think that bimodal is a reasonable way to start. It gets people used to the concept of having to take or in the case of parents give injections every day. That said, they should be moved on from that after a few months as it's clearly not any good in the long run.

Screening for type 1 diabetes: We now have a new forum section which is for parents who, after having their child screened for type 1, have received a positive result that at some stage their child will be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Where possible, please do offer your support and experiences of having a child diagnosed. https://forum.diabetes.org.uk/boards/forums/screening-for-type-1-community-chat.59/
