They are really on an emotional rollercoaster this last week since they found out. They seem to be struggling with a few things (1) giving shots 4 times to a day and hurting their child is getting to them (2) it's forever (3) they are concerned about treatment- worried that they are not doing it right- she could have a low blood sugar episode, etc. (4) their daughter is confused and bummed out- they feel like this will break her spirit (5) they have other young kids and it's putting stress on all of them.
any advice on what we might to do to help, things we might be able to say to assuage their stress, or resources that they might use to help them transition? Anything.
thanks.
