Type 1 Diabetes Has No Favourites "Know The Symptoms"

My very own little purple alien!


I knew very little about Type 1 Diabetes & the "Classic Symptoms" before the 1st May 2008. That is the day our family life changed and Claudia was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.

Whilst nothing could have prevented the onset of Type 1 Diabetes. If we had been more aware & our GP had been more aware of the Symptoms Of Type 1, Claudia would not have ended up in Diabetic Ketoacidosis.
This we all know is a life threatening condition.
I believe if we all work together we can raise the profile of Type 1 Diabetes and the "Classic Symptoms".

Together we can help reduce the number of people in Diabetic Ketoacidosis at Diagnosis.
