Dear September 9, 2018-Hunter: I have some bad news. Tomorrow, you’re going to be diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. I know, it sucks! You’re barely 3 1/2 years old.
Diagnosis Day still feels like yesterday. The initial shock has long worn off, but the daily routine of counting carbs, checking levels, and getting insulin via your OMNIPOD is still very VERY real. My family and I are working the strategy put in place as we step forward, together, to take action.
This is my story: I’m 7 1/2 Years Old and I have Type 1 Diabetes.
