    Need Advice

    My daughter is dating a young man with type 1 diabetes.  Does anyone have any insight or words of wisdom to share?  He seems to be a great guy.

    Hi KaRoh.  Not sure what you're looking for, but since the young man is Type1, he already knows how he has to live his life.  If he eats at your house, you just need to be aware that he needs more veggies than anything else on his plate.  Lean meats and some fruit that is not sweetened with sugar or corn syrup.  Remember that corn and peas count as a starch-like a potato- for him.   Most important advice I can think of:  treat him like you would anyone else your DD brought home.
