Woman, Independent Parent, Artist, Advocate, Artifical Pancreas.... and EVERYTHING in between.

I am blessed to be parenting two beautiful girls, ages eight and eleven. My youngest nearly lost her life at age six (August 2010) to diabetic ketoacidosis: an often fatal consequences of undiagnosed type 1 diabetes. This is OUR journey: raw and sometimes, uncensored.

Thank you for visiting wishing good health and a cooperative pancreas to you and yours.

Sugar Coated Dragons

She wanted poptarts for bedtime snack...
>cringe<
70 grams carbohydrates
2.1 units
Dual wave bolus.
...
Missed the wave.
Crashed on rocky glucose shores.

12:45am
21.8 mmol
She sleeps
While I chase her sugary dragon
Perhaps drawing a syringe
Instead of a sword.
