I wanted to come on and share our story feeling the burnout and hoping it will help in some way. I had been watching before this page Jay and his beautiful family in admiration after franklins diagnosis how they have given more than they know back to this community. Sharing their journey and what to look out for my son Joshua started showing some symptoms at the beginning of December and I was keeping a close eye on it thinking no surely it can’t be type one with no close family history of it. But then at the back of my mind I remembered their words and warnings and rushed him to the doctors on the 15th December and surely enough my gut was right and he got his diagnosis. After 5 days in hospital thankfully with no dka because we got it early thanks to Jay and his awareness spreading we was allowed home to our new way of life. Joshua didn’t want a cgm at first but after persuasion from a special someone he did try a libre 2 for a few weeks. Deciding to go back to finger pricks when he didn’t get on with it and was pulling it off his additional needs make it harder having things on his body. However he is doing well with mdi and finger pricks and we are fast approaching his first diversary. Many ups and down and many changes due to teenage hormones him being 14 but we just got to continue to take one day at a time.
