Isaiah is four years old and was diagnosed three weeks after his first birthday. Proud mom just shared this photo showing off his new CGM which he put on willingly and ‘without tears’, I am told. Look at the beautiful and energetic face. This little man is ready for anything. Diabetes will stop him from NOTHING!!!!!!
We write so many things about so many issues here on the Diabetes Online Community. On this post–please congratulate Isaiah for taking a step so willingly and bravely. Whether someone uses a CGM or not is completely a call you can make with your family and medical team. But when made, as in this case, Isaia was ready, willing, and taking it all in stride.
Mom tells me that Isaiah lives life in a manner where diabetes stops him from nothing…and THAT is why he is Diabetesdad’s Hero of the Day. Please let this young man know how proud we are of him!!!!!! Reply on this post with a message to Isaiah.
