  1. Having A1C's between 6 and 8 sounds pretty phenomenal to me! My son had a 12 within the past year...brought it down to a 7.9 then last one was a little over 9. I sure wish he would GET IT that he needs to take better care of himself. It's one of the hardest things about being a mom(next to the horror they went through losing their dad that is....)...I feel like the biggest nag....he's in counseling and his counselor is a mom of twin boys that both have diabetes and are now in their 20s and doing good. Keep up the good work!!!! Teresa
  2. My son has had type 1 diabetes since he was six. He's almost 13 now and so burned out on it. He checks his blood sugar 4 or 5 times per day and gives himself shots every time he eats. His endocrinologist wants to put him on a pump but I'd have to pay $1500 for it out of my pocket and I'm not sure I want to do that just yet with all the new developments coming up. I just want a cure! Last year in Japan a mother donated islet cells to her daughter and the daughter is cured of diabetes the last I heard. I believe the cure is near....just hope my son can take care of himself good enough so when the cure comes he doesn't have too many life long problems from all the highs he has. The inhalable is not approved yet for kids. Hopefully it will be soon. I would think it would be much easier to deal with than 4 or 5 shots per day. Teresa
  3. We're going to Eloy this weekend! Does anyone know of a great place to eat Monday night on our way home near the airport in Phoenix? Thanks! Teresa
