I was diagnosed when I was two years old, four days before my mom gave birth to my sister. I'm now almost eighteen and this past July was my fifteenth year anniversary. It's definitely a hard disease to live with but I'm grateful that I can control it and can live a regular teenaged life. It was hard when I was younger because the pump wasn't created yet, but it made me who I am today. <br /><br />I've been through over 41,000 finger pricks, over 6,800 shots, 8 seizures and countless highs and lows throughout my life.<br /><br />Thank you so much for raising awareness for Diabetes. With your help we can be one step closer to finding the cure for Diabetes :)Allienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415487540671936812.post-14105110575428170372010-11-30T13:22:19.226-05:002010-11-30T13:22:19.226-05:00Romig1981: Such a great cause, how awesome!Romig1981: Such a great cause, how awesome!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415487540671936812.post-17636868761059954292010-11-30T13:20:52.339-05:002010-11-30T13:20:52.339-05:00Diabites run's in both mine & my wifes gro...Diabites run's in both mine & my wifes group, you don't see many people raising awarness for it.

Hits very close to home for me. My mom was diagnosed with Type 1 when she was 26... which is pretty rare, type 1 usually gets diagnosed much earlier. She has fought this disease for 21 years now, so I have definitely done my homework. I know that my chances are slim of avoiding this disease, it will likely strike me at some point. I just hope that a cure is found so that my children and their children don't have to go through what my mom and many other members of my family are going through!Jacki Nielsennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415487540671936812.post-78527602932638040602010-11-29T13:19:04.754-05:002010-11-29T13:19:04.754-05:00Oh Cathy, you are so generous with yoru giveaways....Oh Cathy, you are so generous with yoru giveaways.<br /><br />I, personally, do not have diabetes, though it runs in both my mother and father's family and I have been tested many times, starting as a child when I use to pass out often with no real reason. My grandmother (dad's mom) has had diabetes since before I could remember and my mom's parents both developed it later in life. My grandfather learned of his diabetes when he had a bout of Congestive heart failure and in the midst of the workup from that, they realized his sugar levels were off. The poor man suffered with all the complications from diabetes that affected his nerves, especially in his feet which caused him to stumble about. He was stubborn and near 60 when it developed so we really had to bother him about what he was eating and teach him that eating a half-gallon of ice cream in two days was NOT good. My grandmother, his wife, is following in his diabetic footsteps, developing it after she was in her 60s. She at least was use to the "sugar-free" baking and such due to taking care of her husband for so many years, but it's often a struggle.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07966003433320432705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415487540671936812.post-20758456852510777332010-11-29T10:00:59.415-05:002010-11-29T10:00:59.415-05:00It is so lovely to see all these donations from ot...It is so lovely to see all these donations from other frikes!

And I have a friend that has been disabled at a fairly young age because of diabetes (sp). Disability pay does not come close to what these folks need to pay their bills...so I help her out by handcrafting items, like Cathy, and giving her the money to support herself.

Diabetes has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I remember as a small child my Granny telling my Grandaddy "Hot your hands June!" That was her way of telling him to rub his hands together and get them ready for his daily blood sugar check--then he gave himself an injection. Later my Granny would go on to need insulin daily too. Fast forward to today my mother is diabetic controlled with diet and oral medication, my aunt is diabetic controlled with insulin, medication, and diet, and my husband is a diabetic--Type 2 and tries to keep it under control with insulin and medication. Today particularly has been a scary day--his "normal" range is in the mid 100s, although 120 is a healthy "normal" today he was at 435--this is scary to a wife. I pray that this disease can soon be cured.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415487540671936812.post-5816095285088867092010-11-22T19:39:25.442-05:002010-11-22T19:39:25.442-05:00It runs on my wife side of the familyIt runs on my wife side of the familyCinderhttp://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000703961886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3415487540671936812.post-32645916929158187472010-11-22T19:37:02.109-05:002010-11-22T19:37:02.109-05:00Love all of it, you do amazing work!Love all of it, you do amazing work!Missyhttp://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=100000657053864noreply@blogger.com
