How Old Were You At Diagnosis?
Love to read everyones replies. My son was diagnosed on December 17th 2007, at 4 years old. I think we can all agree whether were the one with type one or the parent of, we will never forget the day we found out. Its like a holiday or birthday we dont celebrate, but will always be engraved in our minds.
I was 9. I had to miss the last few weeks of 3rd grade and didn't get to participate in a play that I had a solo in. >:P
I was nine. I was diagnosed during the school year and since I was in the hospital I was excused from doing a book report I had been dreading. So that was a plus!
2 months after I turned 20, the start of the spring semester of my sophomore year in college. Needless to say, my gpa wasn't so hot that semester.
8....I feel very bad for the babies and toddlers. I hear that some people are glad that they got it an a young age so they don't know anything differently, but the older your diagnosis is, the less complications you will have at an earlier age.
