On March 1, 2015, my 10 year old son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. This diagnosis has rocked our world. I want to share with others what we are going through as we go through it.

Looking Good

We are 11 days in and my son is blowing my mind! He administers his own shots now. He helps plan his meals. He counts his carbs (and is right!) at school. He's happy.

If a month ago, you asked me how I thought my son would handle this scenario, I don't think I would have been as optimistic. He impresses me so much. He has shown maturity that I don't think most 10 years old could do.

I'm so proud of him.

On top of all this, his blood sugars number has been in the normal range all day. I don't want to get ahead of myself, and I know this could be the start of the "honeymoon period" I keep reading about, but I welcome it with open arms.

Saturday, we meet with the specialist. I'm hoping Nate graduates to the pen. It will make things so much easier. Anyway, that's it for now. Things are good.
