Arriving home I opened the letters to check and took Emilia&#8217;s result to show her, but I bumped into Amy first. Amy read the letter and the look of relief of her face surprised me, she was so relieved that her sister was in the clear for at least a while longer. I don&#8217;t know why I never realised how much this would affect Amy, I wish I had as we could have discussed her worries.<br \/>\nEmilia whilst pleased with the result said that it just meant she had a year of not worrying, that she&#8217;d have to go again in a year. Clearly no celebration as such, just a mild relief, but we discussed that she doesn&#8217;t <strong>have<\/strong> to go every year, unless she chooses to. I think she will.<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s next in the trial?<\/h3>\n<p>As part of the trial they&#8217;d like to retest Emilia in December, one year after her last test.<br \/>\nFor me it&#8217;s all over as in December I&#8217;ll be too old to take any further part in the trial.<\/p>\n<h3>Want to find out more about TrialNet<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to find out more about TrialNet visit the UK web site  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bris.ac.uk\/trialnet-uk\/index.html\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On December 3rd last year, Emilia and I signed up for TrialNet, giving a small blood sample at the Bournemouth Diabetes and Endocrine Centre.
