Living with Type 1 Diabetes: A guide for Families and Loved Ones by Yvonne Coates

Nobody wrote a book for YOU. The partner who lies awake listening for alarms. The parent who memorises carb counts and carries snacks just in case. The sibling who watches from the sidelines, unsure what to say. The friend who wants to help but doesn't know how. Everyone focuses on the person diagnosed. But who supports you? Living with Type 1 Diabetes: A Practical Guide for Families, Partners and Loved Ones was written for the people standing alongside T1D by someone who truly understands both sides. Author Yvonne Coates has lived with Type 1 Diabetes for years. She is also a mum of two.
