Whether your child is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as an infant, preschooler or teen, you can learn from experiences of these families that get their care at the Diabetes Center at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Parents give advice and helpful tips on how to keep your child’s blood sugar under control. They also share something just as important: optimism. Their children play sports, play musical instruments, go on sleepovers and participate in everyday activities - just like any other kid. The kids explain what they were feeling when they were diagnosed, how they adapted and how they’ve learned to live, and thrive, with diabetes. They have plans for school, college and beyond and aren’t letting diabetes get in their way.
I got diagnosed at age 7 and now I’m almost 12. I got diagnosed on May 18 2015. Sometimes I break down crying a asking my mom and dad my me, why did I have to be the one who got diabetes. But now I realize I’m not alone and I was never alone. We are all unique in our own way. And I know that every thing is ok and it always will be. I can still follow my dreams.

I dont have diabetes but i cant imagine how hard it is to have it :(
After a while you forget about it that is just haw you live, that is you. The hardest part is geting upset that others cant understand and you get sad somtimes
One of my friends and best friend has just been diagnosed with it so I just wanted to be more aware of it
It was hard coping for me we still have rough day wear I just cry wishing everything to go back to normal but this is my new normal I was diagnosed at age 10 and now I am 12
Macfi Afafled I got diabetes when I was 5 and I’m now 12. I still struggle mentally with it wishing I could be normal but I have started just saying to myself there’s nothing I can do about it so there’s no use complaining and feeling sad :)
We just got discharged from the hospital. My niece suffered from Diabetic Ketoacidosis. It was scary. Her parents are not here so I'm the one who took care of her. It's such a hard thing to look at a child injecting insulin after meals and monitor blood glucose 5x a day. This video gave me some sort of peace of mind that she can still have a normal life and enjoy her childhood. Thank you.
Thank you for making this video, my best friend who is 11 has type one diabetes, she enjoys playing netball and she likes to be sporty. I am trying to learn as much as possible so I can help her when she comes back to school!
Got diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes just days after my 15th birthday, I was diagnosed on May 25 2018
Emmitt Riley how thirsty were you
I’m a diabetic I was diagnosed at age 2 I’m 10 now I’m on an insulin pump
I got diagnosed when I was 8 now i am 20 it's tough everyday fight
lets gooo! stay strong man, keep killin it
I was diagnosed when I was 18 months old, I've had diabetes for almost 10 years. I'm really used to it now. I have a Dexcom G6 which I like a lot! I also used to have a Medtronic pump, but I got swiched to the Tandem T-slim X2.
everyone did really good keep up the great work guys
True@Elnora4ka interesting points ,if anyone else needs to find out about can i prevent diabetes try HootCure.club ? Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my brother in law got excellent success with it.
I'm a kid and I have type one diabetes. I've had or for almost 4 years now. I use the diabetic pump but i do abmit it's still stressful besides all the other things I have. I'm a girl and when going through puberty makes it even worst so its stressful. Allot of people think it involves eating too much sugar but really it's mostly a genetic disease. I was diagnosed at age 7.
Guys just remember if you have type 1 diabetes your not disabled or anything your a normal human being the only difference is that your pancreas is damaged and than can only be fix by insulin shots my brother has it and he’s not affected and ashamed so you Guys should not be either
Kachi it can not be fixed by insulin shots. It’s so much more complicated than that.
I also have it. I was diagnosed at age 8. It was 2015. Thx for making this video.
I also got diagnosed at 7 or 8 2017
I’m 16 and I was diagnosed at 14. It still hasn’t gotten better. Advice is welcome.
It's always a struggle and there will always be bad days, but you'll learn to roll with it. Sometimes you'll feel exhausted and overwhelmed, but it will pass. Reach out to your family and friends if you need to. Or reach out to others with T1D! Sometimes they are the best people to let you vent your frustrations or to laugh along with you. As weird as it sounds, there are positive things about being Type 1 - it really makes you aware of how important exercise and a healthy diet is in taking care of yourself. It also makes you a hell of a lot tougher than most of the people around you! I was 16 when I was diagnosed with T1D, and that was almost 27 years ago. There are many people out there who have been living with it for way longer than that. None of us are perfect, and if we can do it, so can you! You're not alone!

I just gotten diagnosed a few months ago and it was so scary,i just remembered when i was really hungry and couldnt eat anything i had to suck on mint swabs :( but im glad i can cope with it
I was diagnosed at age 8 because I was very partched 24/7

lolkmilktwobred i was 4. Now I’m 13.
i was 7 years old with type 1 diabetes know i am 28 years old its hard bout i am trying to get batter at it my name is jasmin slaughter i like to walk around when my blood sugar is high and when its low i most eat
I'm 11 I was diagnosed with type one diabetes last year and I was in the hospital for almost a week so honestly this video makes me really happy I recently got a insulin pump and a constant glucose monitor, it's great it's great to know that other people out there are dealing with the same thing, out of EVERYONE in my school I am the only person with type one juvenile diabetes. Also if anyone reading this isn't diabetic I just want to say if anyone you know has diabetes I just wanna say low blood sugar makes me personally feel like CRAP my ears ring my head hurts I get dizzy so if someone's glucose is low its probably good to just let them do their thing and not bother them/try to talk/try to play with them. Amazing video!

How do healthy people get diabetes
Cesar Mendoza Type 1 has nothing to do with your health, your body just stops producing insulin and you need injections of insulin so your blood sugar doesn’t go to high. If your blood sugar is too high you can go into DKA and your body starts shutting down. If your blood sugar is too low you can go unconscious and your body will also start to shut down. People with Type 1 diabetes have no control over their blood sugar unless they take insulin. Type can be controlled with diet and exercise.
great job
I got it at the Age of 2
Sienna Neumann same
i was dx in 2002 on my birthday
I have diabetes I got diagnosed with it a couple of months ago and I have a low self esteem with telling people that I have it and I never show my sensior and most of my friends don’t know that I have it
Horiya Albusaidi Dont be afraid to tell people what’s going on, telling friends can make it easier.
