Hey Bowie mate, not posted for a while except the odd occasion, just read about your son, very, very sorry to hear about that mate hope he's getting on ok now, must admit I don't know much about type 1 diabetes and all its problems mate but unfortunately my 7 year old granddaughter got diagnosed with it just this year so learning all the time and sounds as though I have a lot to learn.

Hi dreamteam mate, great to hear from ya as usual. If that's the case mate the NHS give you guidelines onto the complex variations of what this horrible misfortune can bring and how to recognize its nastiness. The obvious is phone for help at anytime. If ever your in doubt. If you get your granddaughter for any length of time i personally would ask for some kind of one on one with maybe a nurse or a consultant. Never take it for granted though mate. 3 weeks ago i was out with my son etc i could see he was showing signs of hypo . it was really hot that day but he was sweating far more than usual. I ran into a fish shop and got him 2 cans of coke (ahead of the massive queues) just to get his sugars right. Sometimes it can be too much sugar. But himself told me. Your granddaughter won't be able to tell you this. More than likely at such a young age. Please please mate get guidance as 2tone will tell ya.

Bowie, I am listening to all you said about finding out all possible information on diabetes, it’s one of the things that we all hear about but until it appears at your own door you think nothing of it. Hope your son is getting on ok now mate, can’t believe how much diabetes changes peoples lives, and unfortunately type one is for life, my son and daughter-in-laws life has changed completely in the last 6 months, thanks again for the advice. On a different note mate, will Forest ever sign anyone before the season starts?

Were desperate for a left back dreamteam. I'd rather play 10 men than bong, skegby came up with the idea of colback as he's played there before, which i thought sounded very interesting thought. don't over worry about your granddaughter mate. she will be fine .
