Things got "bad" for us around 11-12. If your kids are educated about what they SHOULD do, it's my opinion that they'll get back on track when they're ready. My daughter is almost 17 and is finally "seeing the light" -- she was a camp counselor-in...

Hi Lynn

I'll bet your excited about todays diabetes developments. They're starting a clinical trial into a possible type 1 cure. I think it's a step in the right direction. Give it several more years and we MAY have something we can all use. More on my blog at http://tinyurl.com/248c4p

Hi Lynn and welcome! Oh the joys of teenagers and type 1. It has been an exciting ride so far. Fortunately (or unfortunately) Morgan was diagnosed right before he turned 12 and therefore right when he started into puberty and we have just been hanging on for the ride. Morgan is really an easy kid to manage and does take good care of diabetes, with a lot of support from mom & dad.
We moms of teens with T1's need to stick together!

Thanks for your comment Lynn! I tried a new battery cap and still had the problem with my Cozmo-- so they sent out a new one right away. We couldn't figure what the problem was, but I'm glad it's behind me and my new pump is working perfectly :) Thanks for your concern!

A little background...

Hi all,

I'm the mother of a beautiful, active, social, smart, creative,... cranky, obstinate, rude, irresponsible, 15 (almost 16) year old. I'm stressed, worried, scared and feel helpless.
Anna was diagnosed with type 1 in 1999 at the age of six. She has typically done very well with her diabetes management, having been part of it right from the start ("let ME do it" -- finger pricks; "shots don't hurt"). She's a pumper since 4th grade, though we took a "pump vacation" 2 summers ago (hav… Continue
