Summary:
A previously healthy child starts to urinate more often, seems perpetually thirsty and begins to lose weight, and suddenly the family faces a lifelong challenge of managing the hormone insulin, daily blood sugar monitoring and record-keeping. How do you impose this regimen on a carefree, rambunctious child or an adolescent seeking independence? The diabetes team at The Hospital for Sick Children has been guiding families through this adjustment for more than 25 years. Now the team's medical expertise and practical know-how are available to all parents in this helpful book.
