does anyone out there have children with diabetes?

My daughter is 2 yrs old, My mother in-law mentioned the other day since my daughter wants to eat all the time and since diabetes runs in the family i should have her checked. My daughter will have cereal most days for breakfast a small snack before lunch (something healthy) a balanced lunch (atleast as balanced as a toddlers can be) a snack in the afternoon then dinner some evenings depending on how she eats dinner she will want a small snack before bed. Does anyone think that her eating habits show a sign of diabetes? And does it show up in children this young? She has never had an over abundance of sugar and ive always tried to keep healthy snacks in the house. I dont believe a child needs cookies , candy, chips, to get them thru the day. I know the only best anwser will come from me taking her to the doc but until i can get her in im trying to ease my troubled mind
thanks to anyone who can help

Well. Im 16 years old, and i have a sister that's 21 with diebetes. She got diagnosed with it when she was about 15. One day she just passed out after lunch at school...Her blood sugar got to high. The doctor said it was really weird for her to just come up having it, because she didn't have any signs of deibetes.....And deibetes runs on both sides of my family. My Great Grandmother on my moms side died from it. So, if i was you, i'd get her checked out for it. just to be on the safe side.

:-)

Hope I helped you out.
