Where does the time go?

Where does the time go? I can't believe that it's been almost a year since my last post!! I'm truly sorry, but his past year has really kicked my *ss!! So what is new you may ask?? Lots!!!

  • This past year my oldest daughter was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Not diabetes like her younger sister, Olivia, but with Alopecia Universalis. Her body is attacking her hair follicles and she lost all of her hair. She is completely bald - no hair, no eyebrow, no eyelashes, no body…

Summer time may mean more time!

Posted on June 13, 2009 at 6:24pm 1 Comment

Hello everyone! Wow this place is rocking! So many more members since the last time that I visited tudiabetes and hopefully more people that I will be able to connect with. With me being a teacher, I'm glad to see the school year end. This past few months have been quite frustrating and stressful and I'm glad to have summer here to relax a little. Olivia is doing well - we have had our ups and downs lately, but she is good. Some highlights (and not so highlights from the past few months)… Continue

Two Years!

Two years ago today my sweet little Olivia was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. She has diabetes, but diabetes doesn't define who she is as a person. We love you!

This past weekend (March 14th, 2009) was the Northwestern Pennsylvania chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's annual "Beach Ball Gala" to help find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes.

Hi Ronda,
4 years old is tough to explain whats happening. I used to be a counselor at Camp Earthworks for ADA and I worked with so many young children with early onset.

Hi, Rhonda, Thanks for your note. Yes, I look forward to getting to know you all and supporting one another. I'm also eager for Elisabeth to see other kids who have diabetes. We looked at your pictures together and I showed her that your daughter also has diabetes, look at her needles, etc. We don't know any other kids with Diabetes, so I've been buying story books for her that deal with diabetes and she enjoys that. We've been on the pump for 1.5 years now, so let me know if you have questions. Take care!
