Synopsis

This is a complete, candid guide to living with Type 2 diabetes in adolescence. Recent years have seen an alarming increase in the incidence of Type 2 diabetes among adolescents. But until now, there has been little written guidance available to help teens who must handle the typical stresses and growing pains of adolescence in addition to the demands of living with diabetes. "Type 2 Diabetes in Teens" helps educate, motivate, and support adolescents aged ten to nineteen in understanding, accepting, and managing Type 2 diabetes. A special section features the voices of real teens as they discuss handling their diabetes while struggling with issues such as independence and weight. There is also a chapter telling parents what they should know and understand about diabetes and their child's feelings. Jean Betschart Roemer, MSN, CRNP, CPNP, CDE (Bridgeville, PA), is a pediatric nurse practitioner at the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh and the former president of the American Association of Diabetes Educators. She has authored or coauthored numerous books, including "Diabetes Care for Babies, Toddlers, and Preschoolers" (Wiley: 0 471 34676 4), and "It's Time to Learn About Diabetes Workbook" (Wiley: 0 471 34743 4).
