Emery was just diagnosed with Diabetes today. We caught it early so she should be fine. Please keep her in your prayers. She will be going to the hospital tomorrow night and will stay there for 1-2 days. Mom and Dad will get trained on how to do the daily procedure. She is the one that won't care to have it as much as all of we would. (My sisters) Like today when our Doctor was about to leave to go test to see if she did have it, she was mad because she didn't think she had enough done to her. =] Little did she know, she was getting a prick on her finger in a few minutes. She didn't care and after her prick was done she said, "That didn't hurt at all!!!!!".
Marley was talking about what it was called and she said " What is what Emery has called? Dia..."
Emery proudly finished the sentence for her, "BETES!!!!".
Then Mom said, " Emery are you proud to have diabetes or something?!", and Emery just gleamed.
She will be okay and I am sure we will adjust it just was hard for us because we already have two other diagnoses to deal with, Down Syndrome, and Celiac Disease.
One of my best friends twin brother has diabetes and his Mom is going to help us and guide us through it. Just another help that will help us through this.
