It was April 2021, Riley and Zoey were just 3 and 1 years old when their lives were forever changed.
Not only were the kids adjusting to a new normal with their bodies but because of a move we had already planned, we were now in a whole new city just a month after diagnosis!
We had no “village” to rely on outside of the community we had begun to build online through social media.
Today we are four years into life with diabetes and the tiny impact we hoped we would make has grown into a calling and mission.
Sharing our family's experience with the enthusiastic consent and participation from Zoey and Riley, has allowed us to spread awareness, support our community, create change, and empower others.
Most importantly it has given Zoey and Riley a strong foundation for managing T1D and helping others do the same.
