Type 1: Hi. Here are some sites with reliable information: www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/type-1/ www.mayoclinic.org/.../type-1-diabetes/basics/.../con-20019... I hope your mom takes control very seriously. It will prevent a lot of problems in the long run if she does. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM, Dexcom in particular) has revolutionized type 1 management. Good luck to her!
