Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) is a life-long condition, which is the third most common chronic illness in young people (Metcalfe & Baum, 1991). Management of the illness includes a daily regimen of blood testing, insulin injections and careful balancing of diet and exercise (Shillitoe, 1995). In adolescence, diabetes control often deteriorates (Brink, 1997; Jacobson, Hauser, Wolsdorf, Houlihan, Herskowitz, Wertlieb & Watt, 1987).
