It still can be found online but not on the Playstore. I did download it to see what it was like and it looks OK. It does need updating and the code for this is available on github. Will take a look at this to see what I can do.

Such a shame the Android version disappeared. I recently set up an old phone as a monitor and found the Android app still on it. It appears to work as a standalone. I understand that to maintain it takes time and knowledge.

I hope someone can assist.

Hi Laura,

Drop us an email at [email protected] and we can work with the DAFNE Central team to get you verified as a Graduate. We can indeed change your status but need the OK to do so from the DAFNE team.

Thanks,

Simon

Sounds like this website doesn't recognise you as a DAFNE graduate.

Marke and Simon, are you able to help? Can Laura's status be changed manually so she is recognised as a graduate, or can a new code be generated for her to enter so that she can access the electronic course handbook?

I have only done the Australian/New Zealand version of DAFNE so my workbook would be different to the one that you would use unfortunately.

Thanks,
Warwick.

Hi Warwick,
Unfortunately when I go to DAFNE Tools it doesn't give a link to the course handbook. I have spent hours trawling this site amongst many others looking for it and given up.
Thanks anyway
Laura

Hi Laura,

Take a look under the DAFNE Tools in the top right hand of this screen. There is a link to DAFNE Course Handbook. It should contain most if not all of the info that you need and will likely be more up to date than the handbook that you lost.

Hope that helps,
Warwick.

Hi all,
I've misplaced my course handbook, due to moving several times and need a replacement. My bloods have all of a sudden gone completely out of control and I'm wanting to go completely back to basics. I do remember a lot of it but I want to literally start again.
I've been in touch with the DAFNE head office who said I need to get in touch with the centre I did my course at but they no longer run the course. Theyve suggested to get back in touch with DAFNE head office. I feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall. So thought before I go back to them I'd try on here and see if anyone still had there's and would be able to either scan it or copy it and send me a copy. I will pay any costs and for your time. I hope someone can help, you'd be a life saver.
Many thanks
Laura

Your only interest is in the carbs however they are produced be it flour, sugar, milk whatever so once it's made I would just divide the cake into equal portions and work out the carbs proportionately. At your numbers 8 portions would equate to a fraction over 71 gms per portion so a slightl thinner slice could be your required 60 gms. You can use this basic theory to work out various baking projects. One thing you will need to watch is that sweet things such as cakes can make blood sugars rise very rapidly and can be awkward to get down afterwards. I've had type 1 for 60 years and manage to eat most things but its a case of having treats instead of not as well as. In other words if you want cake then it's best to reduce other carbs in a meal. Good Luck

Hello,

I’ve just baked a Victoria sponge cake and have worked out all of the carbs of the cake, comes to 574g altogether, how do I work out 60g off that Victoria sponge recipe?

Would I need to weigh the whole cake first?

Thankyou in advance for your help!

I finished the DAFNE course on Friday and has brought so much more confidence in my T1 diagnosis, still in ‘honeymoon’ stage at the moment, if only it could stay like it hey!?

Hope you are all well and keeping safe!
