[quote=Anonymous]The only other things I'd suggest for right now are to find some other families with type 1 diabetes. Ask around if you know anyone. And then pick up the phone and reach out to them. You will want to have people in your life that you can text with questions, or reassurance. You might also suddenly realize you're out of something -- fingerstick test strips, for example, and it will be helpful to know people who might be available as backup. Every t1d parent has been where you are. We all remember how overwhelming it is. Other families will be there for you. Someday you'll be there for other families. Happy to answer any questions. I hope these posts helped and weren't just more overwhelming information. In the meantime: it will be okay. It will get easier. I promise. [/quote]
