| My 4yro has type1(would like hopeful stories
When my son was dx,(he was dx at 3) I allowed myself to cry one time, I am a pretty positive person and a christian, and saw no use in worrying over something I can't control. My first mistake was googling diabetes, I already knew the nature of the disease...heck I diagnosed him...but wanted to learn more. When I came upon a website that stated diabetes shaves 10-20yrs off ones life. I stopped looking. Later I ran into a more optimistic site which said as long as it is under control a person can live a normal lifespan minus 5yrs. Anyway, are there any adults around that were dx young and live a pretty healthy normal life?(as healthy and normal as one can be with diabetes) |
