Hi there,
My daughter, almost 37 years old, was diagnosed T1 about two and a half years ago. Boy have a learned a lot. I hadn’t realised how dangerous diabetes is, and quite honestly, it terrifies me.
My daughter is going on to a pump around mid June, and I can’t wait. I’m hoping it’ll settle her down and she’ll have less nighttime lows, which she often sleeps through.
I share her dexcom app, so I get her alarms on my phone, and it scares me, every time.
My daughter is great at being on top of her condition and has done much research to try and look after herself as much as possible, she doesn’t take chances. But as her mum it frightens me.
