Claude is sick a lot and you take her do the doctor. is anything wrong or was it just bad luck?
About six months ago, we noticed that Claude was getting sick ALOT, and just seemed very run down. Eventually we decided enough was enough and took her to the doctor. He seemed really worried and took some blood tests, and prescribed a general antibiotic, saying that he'd give Claude something more specific once the results of the tests came in.
We took Claude home, but she seemed to just get really tired and barely moved off the couch for the next few days. It was so strange, Claude was usually the ring leader in the rough and tumble games, and even then she had energy to spare. After a couple of days the doctor called and told us to get Claude straight to the hospital, because something suspicious had shown up in the blood tests, and they wanted to investigate.
Seb and I dropped the other kids off with a friend and took Claude in. It was terrifying, all sorts of horrible things started popping up in my mind, the kind of 'what ifs' that are a mothers worst nightmare. Hours of testing later, they had a diagnosis... Claude had developed diabetes! They said that it can just pop up sometimes in children, and even stranger, Claude could grow out of it too... but only time will tell on that one. For now, we're gettting plenty of advise from a nuitritionist on how to control the diabete's through Claude's diet.
