My daughter has been in intensive care 40 times
in 5 years with Ketoacidois....I am losing hope,and afraid I am going to lose her. She knows what to do....but does not follow through. She struggles with ADD which is a terrible
combination with diabetes. She will not do readings...and I suspect she skips insulin shots. I am out of ideas, plans, hope....nothing seems to work. They say she just has not hit
bottom yet. I'm afraid "bottom" could be losing
her. Any suggestions, references.....ways to reach her...make her UNDERSTAND the pending dangers of continuing to ignore her disease?
