Good luck.\u00a0 It’s a tough to go through this- but your daughter is young. I am so glad she was diagnosed early and that you have the resources to help her. Teens definitely get better once they learn to manage this illness. Please let her know that she can have a happy and healthy life- it will take time and she will have to work hard, but she can go to school, make friends and look forward to her future once the illness is managed successfully. I really mean this- it’s an illness like any other illness. It can be managed.<\/p>\n
