Put the symptoms of type 1 diabetes in the Red 0-5 years book given to parents.
A child is five times more likely to be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes than meningitis, yet the symptoms are not documented in the red baby book that every new parent is given.
Statistics show that the biggest rise in numbers is in the under 5s age group so it would make sense to put it in this book. If left untreated, or if diagnosed late children die of diabetic ketoacidosis, this is FACT.
Please can the Department of Health reconsider and put the symptoms in this book
