Does anybody really "get it"?

Does anybody else really "get it?" As much as they’d like to, most people just don't "get" what it’s like to parent children with diabetes. The reality of our day-to-day is something that can only be truly understood by other parents who shuffle to bedsides at all hours and know the difference between a tsp. and a Tbsp. is much more than it seems.

We hope this site offers you a place to join in conversation, stay informed, get support, perhaps cry a little, and hopefully smile a bunch.

“My son awakes on a daily basis at over 300. He seems to be rising steadily after about 3am. Is there anything you can suggest that may help? He is on Novorapid at mealtimes and levimir at breakfast and lunch and lantus at night. If ever I raise the dosage of levemir he hypos at about 2am.”
