Diabetes training

As my eldest son, now 21years old, has Diabetes type 1 and has had it since the age of 3. I have taken part in current and relevant education in the caring for patients with the auto-immune disease, and I feel that my knowledge will exceed that of a person who has not dealt with the condition in a personal setting.
