@@gw6667 well, it’s she and not he. You’re insinuating the child is a brat and will cry over anything and that’s not the case. Diabetes is much easier to deal with as an adult vs a child.

Actually fun fact you don’t have to have type 1 diabetes in your family to get it. The theory is it’s a gene mutation, so it can be passed from family but it can also happen randomly. I have absolutely no family history of it and was diagnosed at 14
There is a medical marijuana theory but law doesn't want to use it Also for cancer And other desease I hope one day they could go a better research about that medicine specially in epilepsy there is a findings that in some countries who allow marijuana to use as a medical used it's a better cure than any prescription meds by old fashioned medicine
I love how you give her part control of her diabetes journey by asking her where when what stickers how she is feeling about it and giving her the reason why you have to change it that will give her more comfort and control as she grows older I know having diabetes suckd but as soon as my doctor asked me what I want what my goals were I was more accepting of it and started taking better care of myself and made healthier choices for me before I was new to diabetes I didn't want to accept it and felt all this medication was forced on me and I wasn't making the healthier choices

Hey, did you get your medals yet? They send you free medals for living with T1D for certain amounts of time. I think it was the 15 year one I just got. I mean, I've had it 21 years, but I just discovered the medal thing. I think it's Eli Lilly and the juvenile diabetes association that teamed up to create the medals and send them out for free. You just fill out a little form on their website. It sounds so silly, but it was nice getting a medal after not getting crap from diabetes for years, except DKA and ridiculous hospital bills. You actually qualify for the 25 year medal. Congrats, lol.

My son is 18 and was diagnosed 6.5 years ago. He was watching with me because we were doing a pod and Dexcom and Sensor change. Rare that they all happen at the same time . He said how thankful he is that was not diagnosed until he was 11. He just said he could not imagine being a little one with T1D. The stress is hard enough as a teen. Our sugar babies are so strong and they deal with so much on a daily basis. You are doing a great job mom. She is healthy and happy and thriving
I was diagnosed at 11 too - 25 years ago. Like you said, bad enough at 11, I'm so glad I wasn't this age! My brother is diabetic too, diagnosed a lot longer ago, (There are many decades between me and my brother), he didn't even have a sugar tester back then - pee on a stick was all they had! The times they do change - with any luck, a couple of decades more and it'll be "what's diabetes?".
@@jessicabasurto9485 In my case, my older brother is also diabetic and my dad saw the signs and dragged me off to the doctor who rushed me to hospital.

@@gw6667 Um, excuse me? it’s a little girl. Her name is Addie. & this is because she is a type 1 diabetic. It’s literally to keep her alive & safe. If it wasn’t for her mother “stabbing her” she probably wouldn’t be alive.
@@asiab.00 My apologies, I wonder when God will answer your prayers and save this little _girl_ from being stabbed by his mom? Praise Jesus, it's all for a reason so I guess this is best. Yeah, I'm diabetic too. I also have to stab myself to stay alive. I'm praying to Jesus to cure the girl from this disease of the devil! Praise be.
this is painful to watch because I know the pain she might be going through. I was diagnosed with diabetes at 8 years old and it was a huge turn for everyone in my family. One week in a hospital and I was traumatized with it. I had to be injected before every meal, three times a day and random blood checks at random hours of the day and night. I know how hard it can be on the parents because my own dad broke down outside my hospital room and I had to stop crying when I saw that. I can't believe it's already been 10 years. I'm 18 now and wear my insulin pump which I got 3 years back. And yes it hurts to put it on. It is scary sometimes, honestly and I still hate needles as much as I did back when I was 8. Although we all have accepted it now, it still impacts my life. I often come across people who think Diabetes isn't a big deal, all you have to do is quit sweets and stuff but it's not that easy. My mom has been a pillar in my life for this, even handling my dad at times. You truly are a strong mother and your daughter is very very very brave. I know it can be hard, I know how it can be at times and you are amazing to stay so strong for her. She's gonna be a beautiful girl when she grows up. ❤️❤️
First time I come across your videos. I’m literally in tears 😢❤ god bless you ❤ I can’t imagine, I have two toddlers I really can’t put myself in your shoes 😢
Being a type 1 I wouldn't wish it on anyone. What this little girl is displaying is exactly how I feel about diabetes! Mom is doing such a wonderful job with her.
I am treated as a type 1 because I have no pancreas at all. I have the pump and CGM. My pancreas was removed because I had pancreatic cancer . In my case this is a blessing. I feel so sad for Addie because the needles every 3 days for the pump and my CGM is every 7 days hurts sometimes. I can’t even imagine a baby with diabetes but when she gets older she will be able to handle all of this herself and it will be normal life for her. God bless all the young ones with diabetes. I pray for a cure for them.
@@rahmii12I don’t mind. For me, I had Pancreatitis for months. For most there are symptoms that mimic many things. Nausea, weight loss, upper back pain in my he center of your back. Many people have no symptoms and find out while having a scan or X-ray for some other reason.
But every other mother also has good times with her kids. I could not handle this. I now can understand that mothers just leave their kids with their dad. Imagine going through this every day. Poor mommy needs professional help with this nasty girl. So sad that she does not even take advice.
@@leamichelle3792 I’m sorry are you supporting child abandonment over having a child with a _disease???_ Please for the love of god never have children it’s very clear you would neglect them when they need you most.
How is she a nasty girl, I'm so mad at your comment. Imagine constantly being poked and not understanding why your parents are causing you pain, she's only 2, way too young to understand, any child her age would cry. She will get used to it eventually though.
I’m T1D over 30 years. Yup. Diabetes sucks. So exciting all the developments getting us closer to a closed loop circuit to manage. You’re a good mom. Diabetes will always be a bummer. It can be hard to manage. And hopefully we are around the corner from a cure.
It brings me to tears to see Addie cry and hide from getting things changed, diabetes is such a monster to such a lovely little girl, keep strong baby girl, also her mum, i would brea km my heart to do what you have to do to her each day, strength to you both.
I know this isn't the same, but I had acute lymphatic leukemia from the age of 4-6 years old. Going through chemo was hard for me, but even more traumatic for my mom. Now I'm a healthy 23 year old who understands that my mom had to sacrifice far more of her mental well-being than I did, because for me it was just something I had to do to get better. She had to watch from the outside, while her little girl was basically undergoing torture and occasional changes in personality from the drugs. Hair falling out, swelling, throwing up. To me it was all normal. "It'll grow back mom, don't cry." Or, "I got the stomach flu again, can I have some cinnamon toast for lunch?" All that to say that your baby girl will someday recognize and appreciate how hard you had to work, and what you had to go through to keep her alive and well. My heart goes out to you, and all mothers who have to help their young kids through things like this.
How frequently do you have to change it? You are doing such a good job! She’s so blessed to have a mommy who has the fortitude to do this! You are amazing!
The thing put on in this video was a dexcom which lasts for 10 days but she also has a pump that needs to be changed every 3 days. Sometimes she does it sooner though in past videos there’s been times where her site has fallen off early. I have the same setup as she does and sometimes things will get snagged and rip off.
@@kathyryder828 thank you.. that was my thoughts aside from the obvious fact that she's a kid.. I remember dreading the shit out of taking off bandages so it seems normal this baby reacting how she is..
My T1 daughter was diagnosed at 3, she’s almost 17 now, my best advice - do everything u can for her now, they have it for life and by me taking that burden off of her and helping her has really eliminated the t1 burnout- she has great a1C’s and we have a great close bond, and I’ve always told her I will always be their to help her and I think that comfort and bond we have has had a huge impact on her. Don’t be quick to have them do everything themself- they have it forever--until a cure ofcourse , let them be kids
So strong and she is so quick to calm. I love her lol warrior butt! Bless her and God pls protect this baby at all cost I see good things for her and her moving mountains! She is going to change the world with her story alone…. amen 🙏🏽 She’s so stinking cute had a short pitty cry and is right back to the beautiful smile! #littlewarrior 💪🏽💕
Hello Mama..I'm a 57 year old woman. I've had Type 2 Diabetes for over 30 years and I feel like this some days. It's hard not being like everyone else. In my situation everyone around me is eating all kinds of sweet and greasy processed food. I take my insulated lunch bag with me everywhere so I'm prepared ❤ it sucks bit I feel Amazing ❤ I so love your page and the care you show your daughter 🎉
I feel the same way Addie; but there are things in life that we have to do even when we don’t want to do them! Thank you for being as strong as you can be - you motivate so many of us to do better! Keep up the great work Addie & Mama! ❤😊
Dear little soul. So young to have to walk the path of a medical warrior. My heart breaks for her. Stay strong sweet Addie, and Mom too. Maybe one day this will be a thing of the past. Much love.
She's such a beautiful example of life 🥺 it's terrible that she has to deal with these devices since there's no cure, but I'm just glad that they are keeping her healthy. She's strong, even if she doesn't know it.
You got this mama ❤ she will look back someday and appreciate all that you did for her!! My husband was 5 when he was diagnosed with type 1 and he loves his mom more than words can express for everything she did for him!
This is a difficult disease for children. But we grow up as strong humans. I was diagnosed at the age of 18mths of age and I am now 62 and a half yrs of age. I have outlived the doctor's thoughts of 61yrs ago of having this disease. My love and hugs go to you, her, and your family.
I lost a very dear friend to type 1 diabetes. It's been years now since she died and I'm still mourning her. I hope that this little girl will grow up to live a long life full of happiness and accomplishments in spite of the challenges this awful condition will put her through. I feel with her
So feel I’m her. I remember my mam using huge metal syringes and reusing needles which went blunt on both of us. We then had to boil them or put them in alcohol. To test sugar we peed in a test tube and put a tablet in. Oh how it is changed. I was showing her how my pod fits and as she is 86 and has Alzheimer’s she was very confused as to how I got insulin. But she remembers me screaming not to be jabbed with the big needle. Bless her. You do so well with her.
Yep, there have many times I have felt that same way. I've had Type 1 for 48 years, since I was 4! Things have come a long way and it's so much easier now, but at the same time, it still sucks. You're doing a great job, my mom had two kids with TD1 and she was awesome at teaching us how to not just live a life of a healthy diabetic person, but just as a healthy person. She never said we couldn't have something like an ice cream, but lots of times we had to go biking to get one to help burn it off. I think this made us feel more in control of our disease, that it was something we could live with. Hopefully soon they'll find a way to reverse it!!
Me too a diabetic patient when I got injection after a while my body became pain sensitive even I can't bare the mosquito bite I'm an adult just think of this little flower how she will feel and I'm really admire her mom if I have a chance I want meet her and give a big huggg❤
You're so tough mama. I hate to see my child and pain or sick so i can't imagine what you go through , but love is tough sometimes and doing the best things for our kiddos doesn't always make us feel good. And Your little girl is so strong and smart. Prayers to you guys! Keep educating, My cousin /best friend died from type 1 at 22 years old, and never cared for his health and wasmt showen how to as a child, having a mother like you might have saved his life. And I'm sure you'll touch many mommies out there and encourage them
Yeah.... my sweet boy was her age at diagnosis. He's 16 yrs old now and does his best to avoid the site and sensor changes! We have brave sugar babies! ❤
Probably gets hard when she becomes Uncooperative but in reality she will appreciate that work you have done, I was diagnosed with T1D at 17 and I did alot of it alone without any help and there were many days I wanted to give up. But seeing your effort to give your daughter a healthy life around diabetes makes me smile, you have my respect and love.
Some days it sucks, even for me who lived with it for almost 57 years. Then I can think; I can't take it today, can someone take over. Admiring all parents who are responsible for their children with type 1 diabetes. You are heroes.❤
Aww 🥰 shes so cute i feel so bad no kid should go through this and i know what it feels like my little sister had cancer and she had to have a pic line and we had to change it every 3 months it was hard ait still is but we know you will stay strong and we will pray for you and your daughter as much as we can know god loves you and lets hope she will be okay ☹️
Poor thing! My best friend was a diabetic and I am insulin dependent type 2 diabetic and I feel like she does some days. Some times it still hurts whenever I poke myself with my dexcom or if I have to prick my finger and my injections still hurt occasionally so I understand that feeling but as mom I want you to know I think you are doing a amazing job! The way you take care of all her equipment changes is amazing and I know that days like this one is hard on your momma heart even though you know it has to be done I know it still has to take a toll on you so I just wanted to say that I see you momma and you are doing great! Don’t let it get you down on the bad days because you are literally saving your baby’s life daily and you deserve to be applauded for the job you are doing! I’d send you on a vacation if I could but all I can do is pray for you and let you know I see you and momma you’re doing great!
Prayers on your continued journey through this mommy!!! You’re saving her life every time you do it and it gives parents like me a big perspective to think about…
Having to do something daily that you know hurts your child but if you don't will lead to worse is... It's soul crushing. Especially when they're old enough to beg you not to, but not old enough to understand it's necessary. Poor baby, I'm so sorry you have to do this.
I feel her pain so much! I am 20+ years now a type 1.5 diabetic and most days I muddle through it but some days it's not happening. Chronic illness and auto immune diseases suck!
It gets better ❤️. I've been Type 1 for 15 years. I wasn't nearly as young as she is when I was diagnosed, but the pokes and constant thought about diabetes were so hard for me, even at 12. Now, it's something I take seriously, but also barely think about. My A1C is good. I was able to have a baby without any diabetes related complications and I'm pregnant with my second child now! I'm also married to a wonderful man who isn't afraid of my diabetes at all. Things are going to get better. Hang in there ❤️.
It is not just "sometimes" but diabetes is always sucks. Be strong mom.. she needs you ❤

@@rahmii12I don’t mind. For me, I had Pancreatitis for months. For most there are symptoms that mimic many things. Nausea, weight loss, upper back pain in my he center of your back. Many people have no symptoms and find out while having a scan or X-ray for some other reason.
@@rahmii12 I am sorry. I thought you meant pancreatic cancer. Since I had my pancreas removed I couldn’t tell you.
I'm with you mama. My daughter is a T1D baby too. It's hard but they are strong and will be pros in time!
Mom don’t feel bad. ❤ Her peers cried over the wrong socks or having to wear pants. Kiddos are resilient.
But every other mother also has good times with her kids. I could not handle this. I now can understand that mothers just leave their kids with their dad. Imagine going through this every day. Poor mommy needs professional help with this nasty girl. So sad that she does not even take advice.
@@leamichelle3792
I’m sorry are you supporting child abandonment over having a child with a _disease???_
Please for the love of god never have children it’s very clear you would neglect them when they need you most.
How is she a nasty girl, I'm so mad at your comment. Imagine constantly being poked and not understanding why your parents are causing you pain, she's only 2, way too young to understand, any child her age would cry. She will get used to it eventually though.
@@leamichelle3792 Was stimmt denn mit Dir nicht? Nasty girl? 🙈😄
I am sorry the struggle is is so permanent. Caring for you both
Is it?
@@gw6667 right now it is, but they are trying to find a cure.
@@type1vlogger833 Are they?
@@gw6667 yeah they are, but we don’t know how long it’ll take though
I’m T1D over 30 years. Yup. Diabetes sucks. So exciting all the developments getting us closer to a closed loop circuit to manage. You’re a good mom. Diabetes will always be a bummer. It can be hard to manage. And hopefully we are around the corner from a cure.
It brings me to tears to see Addie cry and hide from getting things changed, diabetes is such a monster to such a lovely little girl, keep strong baby girl, also her mum, i would brea km my heart to do what you have to do to her each day, strength to you both.
I just want to run over and hug her forever. You're a strong mama for having to go through this with your sweet baby
been type 1 since i was 10… so for 14 years now and i can’t tell you that it gets better but it gets more manageable as time goes on
I know this isn't the same, but I had acute lymphatic leukemia from the age of 4-6 years old. Going through chemo was hard for me, but even more traumatic for my mom. Now I'm a healthy 23 year old who understands that my mom had to sacrifice far more of her mental well-being than I did, because for me it was just something I had to do to get better. She had to watch from the outside, while her little girl was basically undergoing torture and occasional changes in personality from the drugs. Hair falling out, swelling, throwing up. To me it was all normal. "It'll grow back mom, don't cry." Or, "I got the stomach flu again, can I have some cinnamon toast for lunch?" All that to say that your baby girl will someday recognize and appreciate how hard you had to work, and what you had to go through to keep her alive and well. My heart goes out to you, and all mothers who have to help their young kids through things like this.
That breaks my momma heart! No kid should have to endure sickness.
How frequently do you have to change it? You are doing such a good job! She’s so blessed to have a mommy who has the fortitude to do this! You are amazing!
The thing put on in this video was a dexcom which lasts for 10 days but she also has a pump that needs to be changed every 3 days. Sometimes she does it sooner though in past videos there’s been times where her site has fallen off early. I have the same setup as she does and sometimes things will get snagged and rip off.
@@lauren-fi8sc thanks so much!! It’s so much for a little bitty kiddo to go through! But moms doing awesome!!
G7 on the way, should be a little better
Aww sweet-smart baby.. she knows it hurts and the treats don't make it go away, very sad..
Just an FYI, it does NOT hurt, its uncomfortable, if that, for about half a second. I know, mine gets changed tomorrow
@@paulaboggs4339 yes but your an adult.. she started as a kid and adults have different skin than kiddo's..
@Paula Boggs pain is subjective. Just because it doesn't hurt you doesn't mean this young child has the same experience.
@@kathyryder828 thank you.. that was my thoughts aside from the obvious fact that she's a kid.. I remember dreading the shit out of taking off bandages so it seems normal this baby reacting how she is..
As she gets older she will be a strong woman who can over come anything
Breaks your heart to see her cry like that.
My T1 daughter was diagnosed at 3, she’s almost 17 now, my best advice - do everything u can for her now, they have it for life and by me taking that burden off of her and helping her has really eliminated the t1 burnout- she has great a1C’s and we have a great close bond, and I’ve always told her I will always be their to help her and I think that comfort and bond we have has had a huge impact on her. Don’t be quick to have them do everything themself- they have it forever--until a cure ofcourse , let them be kids
Be strong darling
So strong and she is so quick to calm. I love her lol warrior butt! Bless her and God pls protect this baby at all cost I see good things for her and her moving mountains! She is going to change the world with her story alone…. amen 🙏🏽
She’s so stinking cute had a short pitty cry and is right back to the beautiful smile! #littlewarrior 💪🏽💕
Hello Mama..I'm a 57 year old woman. I've had Type 2 Diabetes for over 30 years and I feel like this some days. It's hard not being like everyone else. In my situation everyone around me is eating all kinds of sweet and greasy processed food. I take my insulated lunch bag with me everywhere so I'm prepared ❤ it sucks bit I feel Amazing ❤ I so love your page and the care you show your daughter 🎉
I feel the same way Addie; but there are things in life that we have to do even when we don’t want to do them! Thank you for being as strong as you can be - you motivate so many of us to do better!
Keep up the great work Addie & Mama! ❤😊
Dear little soul. So young to have to walk the path of a medical warrior. My heart breaks for her. Stay strong sweet Addie, and Mom too. Maybe one day this will be a thing of the past. Much love.
She's such a beautiful example of life 🥺 it's terrible that she has to deal with these devices since there's no cure, but I'm just glad that they are keeping her healthy. She's strong, even if she doesn't know it.
Bless her precious little heart 💕 My prayers are with her. 🙏 ❤
I feel that, when I was diagnosed with diabetes I hated EVERYTHING
You got this mama ❤ she will look back someday and appreciate all that you did for her!! My husband was 5 when he was diagnosed with type 1 and he loves his mom more than words can express for everything she did for him!
This breaks my heart. Im 25 dealing with an autoimmune and I can’t imagine being a baby and having to deal with this. Sending much love to you both. ❤
Awww.. poor baby.. what a trooper, strong girl! ❤
This is a difficult disease for children. But we grow up as strong humans. I was diagnosed at the age of 18mths of age and I am now 62 and a half yrs of age. I have outlived the doctor's thoughts of 61yrs ago of having this disease. My love and hugs go to you, her, and your family.
I lost a very dear friend to type 1 diabetes. It's been years now since she died and I'm still mourning her. I hope that this little girl will grow up to live a long life full of happiness and accomplishments in spite of the challenges this awful condition will put her through. I feel with her
OMG... I feel you Mommy... be Strong, Addie needs you... someday she will understand
Type 1 Juvenile= 41 years here. Bless her sweet heart...it totally sucks so bad! Hang in there baby & Mama, God will see us through.🙏🏼💕🌸
My prayers are with you...
You are strong... You are mom.
I know there is no one as strong as a mom..
God, please bless and comfort this little precious child 💖 🙏🏻
So feel I’m her. I remember my mam using huge metal syringes and reusing needles which went blunt on both of us. We then had to boil them or put them in alcohol. To test sugar we peed in a test tube and put a tablet in. Oh how it is changed. I was showing her how my pod fits and as she is 86 and has Alzheimer’s she was very confused as to how I got insulin. But she remembers me screaming not to be jabbed with the big needle. Bless her. You do so well with her.
Yes it does always. You are strong Addie ❤️
19 years with T1Diabetes and still hates it, such a brave mamma, and a beautiful 2 year old ❤
Stay strong Addie I have t1d aswell as you I know it's hard but we are on your side we love you
I'm 40, been type 1 for 31 years. I. Hate. Shots. Not too keen in finger sticks either. She is a trooper!
I'm type 1. 😢😢😢 those dexcom changes can hurt a little, but on that little tiny precious arm, it's probably torture 😢
Yep, there have many times I have felt that same way. I've had Type 1 for 48 years, since I was 4! Things have come a long way and it's so much easier now, but at the same time, it still sucks. You're doing a great job, my mom had two kids with TD1 and she was awesome at teaching us how to not just live a life of a healthy diabetic person, but just as a healthy person. She never said we couldn't have something like an ice cream, but lots of times we had to go biking to get one to help burn it off. I think this made us feel more in control of our disease, that it was something we could live with. Hopefully soon they'll find a way to reverse it!!
We love you Addie. You are so strong. You’re doing great, mom! 💛
she’s so cute! her crying breaks my heart, i can’t imagine the struggle of a toddler. stay strong! lots of for little one!! ❤️
Me too a diabetic patient when I got injection after a while my body became pain sensitive even I can't bare the mosquito bite I'm an adult just think of this little flower how she will feel and I'm really admire her mom if I have a chance I want meet her and give a big huggg❤
You are doing great mama. Praying for your strength to endure.
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 at 16 she is so brave and this baby is amazing as well
tough kiddo 😭 just got diagnosed with type 1 this year, it’s been a hell of a ride. kudos to you for doing everything you can for her
Awwww my baby plz don't cry it's really painful to see u cry 😭
It really sucks, been living with it for 9 years be strong kiddo ❤❤
She is such a wee warrior! You are an amazing mom and she is very lucky to have you darlin!
You're so tough mama. I hate to see my child and pain or sick so i can't imagine what you go through , but love is tough sometimes and doing the best things for our kiddos doesn't always make us feel good. And Your little girl is so strong and smart. Prayers to you guys! Keep educating, My cousin /best friend died from type 1 at 22 years old, and never cared for his health and wasmt showen how to as a child, having a mother like you might have saved his life. And I'm sure you'll touch many mommies out there and encourage them
Prayers dor you both!❤
Yeah.... my sweet boy was her age at diagnosis. He's 16 yrs old now and does his best to avoid the site and sensor changes! We have brave sugar babies! ❤
I remember going through this with my niece when she was so little.
It's so hard to deal with, not just for the child, but for all who cared for her.
Her poor little face breaks my heart 😭🥺💔
Probably gets hard when she becomes Uncooperative but in reality she will appreciate that work you have done, I was diagnosed with T1D at 17 and I did alot of it alone without any help and there were many days I wanted to give up. But seeing your effort to give your daughter a healthy life around diabetes makes me smile, you have my respect and love.
I have a diabetic 4yr toddler for over 2yrs. I couldn't imagine making a video and posting it her crying like this.
Some days it sucks, even for me who lived with it for almost 57 years. Then I can think; I can't take it today, can someone take over. Admiring all parents who are responsible for their children with type 1 diabetes. You are heroes.❤
Aww 🥰 shes so cute i feel so bad no kid should go through this and i know what it feels like my little sister had cancer and she had to have a pic line and we had to change it every 3 months it was hard ait still is but we know you will stay strong and we will pray for you and your daughter as much as we can know god loves you and lets hope she will be okay ☹️
Poor thing! My best friend was a diabetic and I am insulin dependent type 2 diabetic and I feel like she does some days. Some times it still hurts whenever I poke myself with my dexcom or if I have to prick my finger and my injections still hurt occasionally so I understand that feeling but as mom I want you to know I think you are doing a amazing job! The way you take care of all her equipment changes is amazing and I know that days like this one is hard on your momma heart even though you know it has to be done I know it still has to take a toll on you so I just wanted to say that I see you momma and you are doing great! Don’t let it get you down on the bad days because you are literally saving your baby’s life daily and you deserve to be applauded for the job you are doing! I’d send you on a vacation if I could but all I can do is pray for you and let you know I see you and momma you’re doing great!
Her crying was the toughest thing to watch. Poor baby 😢
I can Never see Addie crying during the dexcom change 😥😢😭
What an amazing Mum and daughter❤️❤️❤️❤️
Poor baby! Shes so brave! 🥺
Prayers on your continued journey through this mommy!!! You’re saving her life every time you do it and it gives parents like me a big perspective to think about…
You got this mom I believe that I speak for everyone when I say we got your back❤ stay strong
Poor babygirl.. Diabetes sucks! all the time. You are very strong hunny bunny.. You too Mama
Having to do something daily that you know hurts your child but if you don't will lead to worse is... It's soul crushing. Especially when they're old enough to beg you not to, but not old enough to understand it's necessary. Poor baby, I'm so sorry you have to do this.
Poor little one you are a very strong family❤
My heart rips. I sincerely pray for her. some miracle should take away her pain. what a beautiful soul and may god bless her.
This girl has the courage of the entire
Human civilization on earth❤️
She is to brave, It hurts seeing her crying, She is gonna be ok we love you❤️❤️
Will she?
I feel her pain so much! I am 20+ years now a type 1.5 diabetic and most days I muddle through it but some days it's not happening. Chronic illness and auto immune diseases suck!
Made me laugh so hard when the kid tried to destroy his lollipop with the phone 😂
Bless you little one ❤❤❤
my brother was diagnosed with t1d in 2018 today i find it unbelievable how far he has come. stay strong ❤
I was diagnosed in 1976. I make good choices 99% of the time but it still sucks. Everyday.
Praying for you both. It is so hard on you both.
It gets better ❤️. I've been Type 1 for 15 years. I wasn't nearly as young as she is when I was diagnosed, but the pokes and constant thought about diabetes were so hard for me, even at 12. Now, it's something I take seriously, but also barely think about. My A1C is good. I was able to have a baby without any diabetes related complications and I'm pregnant with my second child now! I'm also married to a wonderful man who isn't afraid of my diabetes at all. Things are going to get better. Hang in there ❤️.
I'm 55 in miserable pain and I feel so sad for this precious sweet girl. Momma, you are amazing.
