I look forward to hearing from you again soon.
a whole lot at the time. I knew l just enough to get me into trouble and not enough to get me out! I had a pediatrician who was very supportive of me and had me call multiple times during the day & night. Rob was 1 in 2000 babies at that time with diabetes. It was fairly rare & he almost died before he was diagnosed. tough tough times, I am afraid! Guilt and more guilt and fear and more fear...depression....anger and more anger, but it was something I couldn't give in to as he depended on me for his life. I am so glad those times are over. I continue to worry about him...daily. He is a strong person and knows his body & his disease better than the doctors. Right now he is in North Carolina @ NASCAR races. His Dad & I divorced when he was 6 y/o. I am remarried and my husband is very supportive of me and him and is a good father to my son...even tho' he is all grown up. Life is good. diabetic complications are there...but he is dealing well with them and I admire him so much as he never gives in or gives up...just keeps on keeping on! He is on disability, but works 18-24 hours a week @ Sears. thanks for writing me back. I wish I would have had this TU Diabetes site when he was small! Larra M
We are doing good. Thanks for asking. My daughter is getting ready to graduate high school in a couple of weeks. Bitter sweet time in her life. All of her good friends are going away to different schools. Thank goodness for cellphones and computers---they will be abe to stay in touch. Have a great day!
