When my son was first diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 18 months of age, I quickly found that the literature offered by my diabetes clinic addressed the larger issues of what was happening, but didn't help with day-to-day issues, particularly in a child so young. TuDiabetes gave me a place to learn the ins and outs of parenting a child -- an infant, really -- with diabetes. The community of members has really been an active partner in my son's care, and for that I'm eternally grateful.
