I have 3 kids. An 8 year old daughter, a soon-to-be 6 year old son and a 3 year old daughter. My son was diagnosed with Type 1 a little under 2 years ago and it was really hard on all of us. Mostly my son. It took a long time for my wife and I to get adjusted to taking care of a child with diabetes but over the last year we really started to settle in and really get in a groove with our schedules and our son starting kindergarten and managing his diabetes. He even got his CGM a couple months ago! And then last night my 3 year old daughter had to be rushed to the ER because she was in the early stages of DKA. Kid number 2 with Type 1. I feel so defeated right now. I don’t know what to do. I want, more than anything in the world, to be able to take it away from both of them and tell them everything is going to be ok. But I can’t. And I don’t know what to do.
I just needed a place to rant. Mods, If this type of post isn’t appropriate for this sub then you can delete it. I just needed somewhere to put this into words and get it off my chest.
