Thank you for sharing.
I felt guilt for a different reason. My mother was T1D. I grew up with this. It took me a week to put all the signs together when it came to my daughter.  Sadly at age 7 my daughter was diagnosed with T1D on 10/10/2016. From adulthood till now, I escaped Diabetes. Now it's back. All  the diabetic nightmares I had as a child came back. Like having to give your lifeless mother a glucagon shot, then calling 911, and your father. Pretty tough for a kindergartner. 

Thankfully technology has changed the past 25 years. Maybe what I went through as a child has better prepared me for this journey.
