You write exceptionally well. I feel your pain. I’m a type 1 diabetic since age 11. My youngest sister (i’m one of 5 children) was diagnosed months before at age 3. My parents, particularly my father did the same as you and it is perfectly understandable. I look forward to reading more of your blog and if you have any questions let me know! Also, on my website, my parents will soon be featured in an interview I do on them about their thoughts on having raised two diabetic daughters to adulthood. You might find it interesting to check out.

Steve, I am looking forward to following your blog. Your writing is so wonderful……….My 5 year old son was diagnosed in June of 2009. I did find it difficult to cope and needed support, JDRF found me a mentor- Heidi, whose 6 year old son also has type 1. Her support has been to say the least, phenomenal. Our boys have become good friends.
Anyway, found you on SixUntilMe. Reading Kerri’s blog has been a lifesaver, I feel as though I am peering into my son’s future. Type 1 is such a small community so it is refreshing to hear other people’s stories.
