We've lost another child to diabetes. Beautiful 14-year-old Emily. From what I've read this family was super active with the JDRF...very responsible family. It's heartbreaking.
And, I think there was another death as well....an 18-year-old who just moved into her first apartment and suffered lows all day.
Days like this, I get so frustrated with people who look at Matthew and....almost ignore the diabetes because he's thriving. Yes! He's thriving, but only by the grace of God and serious care 24/7/365.
So many people just don't get it. Too many kids are dying from this disease.
It's a hard day to be a d-mom.

but by the grace of God, indeed.
my heart goes out to those families and I will surly be hugging Bean a bit tighter today!
Yes it is. Very hard. (((Hugs))).
My heart is so heavy...at least we have each other
Sad and angry. Love to you...xo
It is heart breaking to read about these losses. I noticed on facebook last night that the family of Emily commented she died of a stroke, not diabetes related. I know long term a stroke is possible with diabetes, but wonder if it was in this case. Regardless, it is still devastating.
