Stay at home mom
I was fortunate enough to be able to stay at home with my children and raise them until they were all in school. When my oldest son was 18 months old, he was diagnosed with Type I Diabetes. I was then thrust into the role of being not only mother, but also diabetes specialist, caregiver, trainer, educator…. I consider myself to have done a good job, as he is now an adult, very well controlled, and self-reliant in his diabetes care.
