I was 7 when I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I don’t remember life before finger pricks, carb counting and middle-of-the-night lows, but I do remember the people who made it feel less scary: my community.
Type 1 never takes a day off, so neither do we. That’s why my team is called No Days Off T1D, and it’s why I walk: so no one has to feel alone with this, and so one day nobody has to live with it at all.
On February 27, I’ll be walking around Lake Eola for the kid I was, and for every family hearing “type 1” for the first time. Will you walk with me to help us reach our goal?
Thank you,
Brooke
