The Love Ya / Mean It Pin

I am Delaney.

I’m ten.

I’m type 1.

So is my brother Connor.

And so are millions other Americans.

This is Connor and I with about two weeks worth of our testing supplies. Look at all those sharp thing we poke ourselves with - talk about a pain in the butt - literally. (OK this was before Connor grew a foot)

The blue and pink puck like things are insulin pump infusion sets, IVs. We each stick ourselves with a new one of these things about 200 times a year. That's a lot better than 1,500 shots a year we would be getting without our pumps.

All that is nothing compared to finger sticks. Dad says think of it as only a finger prick. Love Ya, Mean It, Dad, but the dozen or so blood tests we do every day are a pain too. That’s well over 4,000 a year, for each of us.

There is hope. Scientists are working towards a better understanding of Juvenile Diabetes. They believe there can be a cure in our life time.

We are only two kids. Roughly one kid in 500 is type 1. That is a lot of type 1 kids. We all try to be just normal kids but it would be a lot easier with a cure that did away all the
holes poked in us.

I would love cure. So would my brother and the millions of others. So my family will Raise Our Voices for Type 1 Diabetes Awareness.

We would love you to join us.
