Hi. I am sorry you are going through all of this. That is a lot for a 7 year olds plate, much less her mom. My daughter was recently diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes. She is 7. I am a Juvenile Diabetic, as well. My blood sugars have been completel...

I was 15 when I was diagnosed with type 1, and my brother was 13 years at the time. He had a very hard time adjusting to it and being a teenager rebeled against anything my parents said to him with a whole lot of anger. It went on for a few years,...

Oh my gosh! how sad. I am so sorry for your family especially your daughter. It is too much for a 7 year old, but kids are so resiliant. They are capable beyond our wildest expectations. I can't imagine what you all are going through. You will mak...

Robin, I too wish that I could say or do something that would help you and your family. What a lot to be going through. It's terrible how kids can treat other kids and no, you can't control the outside world. However, you just have to make sure th...

Hi, my niece has Type 1 and Hashimotos (hypothyroid, autoimmune). In light of her other autoimmune diagnosis, I am concerned about your daughter's diagnosis of "Type 2 leading to Type 1." Could she have Type 1.5 or LADA, which can occur in childre...
