My oldest daughter is type 1 diabetic. We just found out. She was life flighted to children's hospital. She went into diabetic ketoacidosis. Almost died but she's here and I am grateful

We DO share something that can't be understood except by another T1. ❤💛💚💙💜

Becca Steele this is so true. The only health care professional I ever felt understood by, back when I was a teenager, was a nurse who also had type 1. She was awesome

"Thats 40 grams" "Wait... how do you know that?" "Im also diabetic."

I love this! Such an imaginative way to think about diabetes. Not only that, if you are open to the community, imagine all the friends and interactions you’ve had that you would’ve never had without it. I’d love to get involved with the type 1 community but I have no idea where to start. As a teenager I was the same way as her, stubborn with my independence. But opening up to the community makes this so much easier in many different ways.

Inspirational and very true... We are warrior's

I wish this community existed for real… so far I have not found one and am still really lonely either this disease 😢

I am have Diabetic too. We can talk via chat if you like ❤ Im Eva-Maria,31 and i live in austria

This is a good presentation. I have had diabetes, type 1 for 35 years and definitely experienced diabetes burnout and the rest of it. This presentation and its ideas, should be given to (sold to) the medical field diabetes education services that are provided at hospitals and insurance companies (HMO's) as a way of changing the thinking that most people have when they are first diagnosed. Congratulations Lucinda, you can turn your ideas into an effectual way of saving the quality of our lives.

You HAD Diabetes type one? Means u are healed now?

You know a really cool thing I've experienced.. in this last year since getting a freestyle libre blood testing sensor on my arm (which is amazing) I get random peeps come up and say I've got one of those or I'm diabetic too and we have a cool chat and discuss our condition. My whole life I tried to hide my disease (it won't impact my life mindset) but it's really been liberating and almost taken any shame away from it.

Thank you.

So inciteful!

Such an interesting way to view handling chronic disease!

Fantastic.

Amazing!

This should be more popular!!

We have an 11 year old girl struggling feeling alone with her diabetes. I am searching for local organizations or Bis Sister type programs to connect her with an older teenager to connect with. Does anyone have resources to organizations? We are in the DMV (Virginia ) area. thank you!

I wanna go backpacking with a group of t1ds

Just a little while ago I had this one idea for diabetics I find it very strange that when a person finds out they are diabetic especially type 1 they basically care for you and don’t teach you much and basically you figure it out on your own it’s not a good way too go about a disease I was thinking what they could do is once you find out you go to a centre and practice diabetes care where you get hands on training and life experience for example working with diabetes aka employment. Let’s say you do this for let’s say a month yes you are away from family and friends for a bit but in the end it would be better for long term care of the disease at least that’s what I think should be set up. Because there are a lot of employers and regular people that don’t get that type 1 diabetics have rules or guidelines that we live by day to day.

That’s a beautiful idea, something I think a lot of us would benefit from. Almost like a care camp lol

@@nirvemelrose7877 exactly because let’s say an employer asks a type 1 diabetic if they can work and 11pm to 7 am shift they don’t understand that diabetics can’t just do that we have to modify and plan a whole insulin plan for that. But yeah a centre would be a great thing to do it would cut down on the amount of diabetes complications that go on because people would be more educated on how to manage the disease

Lol. My hubby calls me Dia-Betty.

I got an ad about type two before this

Но это излечимое состояние! И сплочениние углубляет понимание этой болезни в сознании, как что-то нормальное и должное. Но это не так! Да,возможно врезультате, эти сообщества совместными усилиями излечатся,поняв как развивается болезнь и как вернуть здоровье)

get a cgm and scan it often. makes life alot easier. and exercise

The underlying ideas I agree with but the cultish language I surely do not. But what would you expect from an art major from Canada.😂😂😂😂

Love it except for the constant use of “diabetic” to describe a person with diabetes. She says over and over that language has power - put the person first.

I hear you. I just did a podcast on language around diabetes. There is a shift in this worldwide. Also 'disease'. The research shows only 50% of people are offended by 'diabetic' so I guess it's individual. I do hear you though. The intention is very good here. ☺️

Thank you.
