I'm walking in Busselton to turn type one into type none!
My son was diagnosed with T1D 9 months ago at aged 14. He has never complained about needles, changing his diet, being made fun of by other kids for having to wear a pump and have alarms go off in class. He knows he will forever have to monitor his foods, check his sugars, inject insulin and have to go to extra lengths to prove he is capable of so many things we take for granted like even getting a driver’s licence. His life will never be the same again not will
mine - for I will worry forever for him.
I'm joining the world's largest walk for a future without type 1 diabetes (T1D) at The Busselton Jetty on Sunday 16 March 2025!
Why? To help fund life-changing research aimed at improving lives and curing T1D so another child doesn’t have to live with this life changing and ultimately life limiting disease.
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.
