Type 1 Ain't Fun
Type 1 Diabetes has been a part of my life now for almost 3 years. As a parent, nothing prepares you for the moment you hear that your child has been diagnosed with a lifelong condition. When my son, Beau, was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, our world changed overnight. We learned about carb counting, insulin dosing, and the constant balancing act required to keep him alive and healthy.
Every day, we navigate the highs and lows - literally and emotionally. From sleepless nights checking blood sugars to making sure Beau can enjoy childhood without limits, his diabetes is always there. But so is our determination to fight for a cure.
That's why I'm taking part in JDRF's One Walk, to raise awareness, support research, and help create a future where Type1 Diabetes is no longer a lifelong burden. Every step I take is for Beau and for every family facing this challenge.
If you'd like to support my walk, please consider donating. Every dollar brings us closer to better treatments and, one day, a cure. Thank you for being part of this journey with us!
I'm walking in the Illawarra region to turn type one into type none!
I'm joining the world's largest walk for a future without type 1 diabetes (T1D) at Reddall Reserve on Sunday 16 March 2025!
Why? To help fund life-changing research aimed at improving lives and curing T1D.
Type 1 diabetes can strike anyone at any time, and 8 Australians are diagnosed every day. Diagnosis means a 24/7 fight with no break and facing an extra 180 decisions a day to remain safe and healthy.
Please support my walk today.
