Hello, folks. My son is a teenager and till few months ago he has been very well. However, he has been recently diagnosed with diabetes. I must admit that I got in panic first and I didn’t know what to do. I was hoping someone with similar experience could give me some advice.
Hi, there. I know exactly what you are going through. I was in the same situation three years ago. My son was 13 when he was discovered diabetes. In time, I have learned that he is the one that is sick and who has the hardest time. I am here to support him. He depends on me. I am afraid that you will have to restrict your son’s diet. He must take his insulin regularly. He must follow his doctor’s instruction. Otherwise, consequences can be very serious. If you feel that you need help, find a support group or go for counseling. Good luck!
