The Diabetes Game: A Teenager's Guide to Living Well with Diabetes

17 year old Nora Coon writes from a teen's viewpoint about Type 1 diabetes in The Diabetes Game. Her perspective is not one of false optimism. Her book is filled with realism as she describes coming home from the hospital, going to dances, or even dealing with the jerk in algebra. She includes sidebars about family conflict, parents simulating diabetes, and more. Nora's journey of a teenager with diabetes includes negotiation points with parents, losing focus and being burned out, pumb therapy and traveling with diabetes. This will be a great book for parents to just see what and how their teen with diabetes thinks.
