Hi Rich, Yes she did get very sick in the end, but there were vague signs leading up to that day. On her standard 9 month check up at the pediatrician, it showed that she didn't grow at all from the previous visit - strange for a baby, but the dr. was not concerned (?!?). Even before that she was always hungry after her bottle and never wanted to be held - just little odd things that made me take note at the time, but never really knew what it was. Then, other times she was fine and acted normally...until the end of her 9th month when she suddenly smelled strongly of ketones (I learned later what that was) and was peeing like crazy - over filling a diaper every 2 hours. These new symptoms literally started on a Friday and by Monday she was hospitalized in PICU for a week. I believe her pancreas was slowly shutting down (well the insulin making part) for months before until it finally just stopped. Then three months later my husband (who was 35) developed the same exact symptoms (ketones, extreme weight loss and peeing) and I insisted on testing him with her equipment. His blood sugar was over 400 and obviously he had diabetes too (later diagnosed as adult onset type 1). Very strange, right? Have you noticed any symptoms in your daughter?
