Corbin's Diabetes 1 year Anniversary

Last November Corbin was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. It's been a rough year trying to learn and live with it. I can still remember like it was yesterday and how our lives fell apart so suddenly. Never thought I would see one of my children having to suffer with something on a daily basis. Things have improved, but there is still frustration with understanding how to control his blood sugar. We started out giving him 6-8 shots a day, which equals about 1,800 for 10 months until we got him on a pump.

Here is 10 months worth of shots.

His pump arrived in September

Pricey little gadget, only $6,600! He'll never get a car!

Sporting his electronics!

Jared took Corbin and his friend C.J. to a BYU foot ball game to "celebrate"

They had a great time, blew a bunch of cash on junk-food. Perfect for a diabetic, when he got home we checked him and he was 518! Oh what fun....

I want Corbin to know how much we love him and are proud of how he has dealt with all of this. He's been a great example of long suffering, we admire and hope that he will continue to have patience with this. We hope and pray for a cure one day so he can feel "normal" again.
