Support for others living with Type 1 Diabetes

Are you looking, needing or wanting someone to talk to about Type 1 Diabetes? For you, your son, daughter, or grandchild that has T1D. Having someone your kids can turn too. So kids don’t feel alone. Plus get idea’s from each other, who live with T1D.

Sometimes a mother, father or caregiver can be lost and hopeless. I wanted to create a group where everyone can share how they feel. To understand that turning to one another and God can give a sense of peace. Having others to lean on will help in so many ways.

Kids can feel singled and left out because of T1D. I want kids of any age to come together and see that they are not alone, because it T1D can be hard on them. (It was for my girl) Being able to turn to a friend that is T1D will give them strength and support on their every day journey.

Getting Idea’s from one another can be so much fun and put your mind at ease! Idea’s such as snacks, recipes, nutrition and gear. Ideas can be so helpful. That way everyone can have a successful journey of T1D.

The reason for this group is because I want every T1D out there to be happy and to have support. Living with T1D can be stressful. I know because I was there. Goals I have are to give comfort and a peace of mind to mothers, fathers, grandparents, and caregivers. Also for kids with T1D. Having someone tell you “You can do it” and getting someone else’s ideas is helpful.

Come to the first meeting on Thursday November 20th at 6:30 pm. It will be held at the Brethren’s Home meeting room, 750 Chestnut Street Greenville, OH. Next meeting days in December will be the 4th at 6:30pm and 13th at 9:30am. Also, in January 8th at 6:30pmand 24th at 9:30am.
