Giving a little bit back!
On 22nd June Chloe and her trusty followers (aka Mummy, Daddy and Charlie) will be taking part in One Walk London - a 10km sponsored walk to help raise money to fund life-changing research and make a difference to the lives of people affected by type 1.
Chloe was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes on 30th October last year and whilst every health care professional we've come across has been absolutely amazing, so much more awareness and research is needed for this life changing condition.
On the night Chloe was admitted to hospital, JDRF gave her a fab teddy. That teddy has diabetes just like Chloe, and he supported us through our journey of learning about diabetes, blood sugar testing and insulin injections. That teddy made the world of difference to a very sick and scared little girl, and we would just like to give something back to the charity that first supported us.
We thought Chloe had a typical childhood sickness bug, little did we know that her body was in the life threatening state of DKA. She had no other symptoms.
Chloe's life changed forever on that night (as did ours). Initially we were reliant on finger prick testing, carb counting, and insulin injections four times a day. Chloe now wears a continual glucose monitor which has made life so much easier, but living with diabetes is relentless and there is still so much more to be done for people living with this life changing condition.
400,000+ people are currently living with type 1 diabetes in the UK, and with your support and your generous donations, we can fund JDRF UK’s important work towards finding a cure. Here are just a few examples of what your money can do...
Every £10 could help run a research laboratory for 10 minutes - bringing us 10 minutes closer to finding a cure for type 1 diabetes.
Every £25 could pay for an hour of research nurse support for someone involved in a clinical trial, which could ultimately lead to the next big breakthrough. Without this support, there would be no trial.
Every £50 could enable a scientist to use lasers for two hours, allowing them to study the immune cells at the heart of type 1, monitoring the success of clinical trials and further improving knowledge into type 1.
We know times are tough right now with the cost of living crisis but if you could donate anything, it would mean the world to us as a family.
Together, we can help JDRF to eradicate type 1 diabetes!
All our love, The Osbornes. X
