I'm sorry to hear that; having a child whose been diagnosed with diabetes can put a family under great strain. As adult diabetics we understand the need for medication and good glucose control through diet - very young children don't.
That said, I'm afraid I don't have any suggestions; I hope some parents of diabetic children come along to offer suggestions and helpHealth Question & Answer

maybe give her less portions of food maybe she gets full then wait a bit until she eats more or if that doesn't help maybe try showing her how to eat faster i taught someone at my old school at 5 to eat a sandwich fast and not eat really slow. also one more thing is you could try like to help feed her talk to her and say if you eat this and quick and stuff and reward her. good lookHealth Question & Answer
