I have been following your blog for quite ...Laura,<br /><br />I have been following your blog for quite some time now and have tried to comment on some of your posts but for one reason or another they haven't gone through. <br /><br />I just wanted to say thank you for verbalizing the challenges that we have as D1 moms in such a great way. I am often brought to tears by your posts because my T1 son, who is now 5, was diagnosed at 18 months. It seems we battle T1 challenges on a parallel level. My son started Kindergarten in August and we went through the same things! I actually at one point went to the principal in tears saying " who is this kid, this is not my son." Thank you again for writing and, without knowing it, providing support.<br /><br />-Kelly In CaliforniaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09508890066813266564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-33047825833033876422014-01-06T18:55:14.531-06:002014-01-06T18:55:14.531-06:00Laura,

That is amazing that you mentally survived ...Laura! That is amazing that you mentally survived all of that! I have had a totally different experience with Willie and I don't know if I could have handled what you did. Of course, I guess we all handle what we have to, like it or not. My point is, I am so relieved and happy that you were able to stay strong. I hope that Nate will continue to make progress and most of all, be happy. Isn't that what we want for our babies? You're doing a stupendous job!!!Lorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04909153933738955497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-51608067082836918102013-11-04T05:13:41.473-06:002013-11-04T05:13:41.473-06:00Oh my gosh, this brought be back. My son, who is n...Oh my gosh, this brought be back. My son, who is now in the 5th grade, had the hardest time going to Kindergarten. Our problem started when a lunch aide told the class that if they didn't line up fast enough they would be left outside. That's all my son needed to hear, that he might be left outside without an adult, and that shook him to his core. It took months for him to settle in, and he finally did. It was not our best year, but we did it, we survived, and sometimes that has to be good enough. All the years since have been amazing. He surprises me every day with his strength, his grace, his everything he is as he handles this disease like a boss. Good luck for the rest of the year!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04874625389163153888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-23625144307074475222013-11-03T22:26:09.612-06:002013-11-03T22:26:09.612-06:00Hooray!!!

I laughed a little whe...You did it (both of you)!!<br /><br />I laughed a little when you said the "first six weeks". I used to work at a college and they would drill into us how important the first six weeks are. If a student makes it through that time it is highly likely they will stick with it and make it through the rest of the year. I bet it's the same for kindergarten! :PSarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10834565473474357037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8100126567446754858.post-54985816789110592932013-11-03T14:39:08.195-06:002013-11-03T14:39:08.195-06:00So true!
