November is national diabetes awareness month so in this episode I am doing my small part to spread awareness of especially Type 1 Diabetes, which two of my little sweet daughters have been diagnosed with in the past couple years. It is the real deal! So much diabetes drama around here and I literally have no idea how I would survive without my "coaching tool belt" to manage myself while managing their diabetes.
These sweet innocent little people have a pancreas that has called it quits and now we have to essentially try to recreate all the magic that a God made body organ can just do automatically. Absolutely unreal to try to comprehend how intricate our bodies are! And what they do for us every second of every day and night! And when any part malfunctions, how we finally can recognize that.
Having to "be a pancreas" is a full time job. Luckily we have a lot of medical technology to help but it is still a LOT! Physically, medically, and also mentally and especially emotionally!
As a coach, that is the support that I can offer. Mental and emotional support for the worn out, exhausted, heart-broken, and overwhelmed Momma of these sweet T1D kiddos.
PLEASE, if you meet any of these moms, send them my way! I'd love to help and support them on this roller coaster that never ends!
