When your child is diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, it’s a life changing experience for that child and the entire family. Medical Information is available from many sources. But what will help you cope with the emotional journey and lifestyle changes?

“Moving Forward … With Diabetes” presents insights, stories, advice and reassuring messages from parents who have children with diabetes. They have faced the shock, overwhelming information, new routines and everything else that goes along with the diagnosis. Their most important message is that parents can get through this challenge and help build normal lives for their children.

This informative video addresses topics including: facing the diagnosis, managing diet and testing, finding support, dealing with school and normal activities, and coping with your emotions – plus lots of helpful advice and lessons learned. The children offer their insights, as well.
