Hi! I’m Milly, and I’m a diabetic vet. I’d like to think I know a thing or two by now! My goal with this website is to help, encourage, and let teens, tweens and kids with diabetes not feel quite as alone as I did.
I would like to help you get through this crazy world and still have fun with diabetes! I know it can be overwhelming at times, but you are not there alone. I’ll do all the firsts, so you don’t have to. I hope y’all will feel comfortable here, and we can watch this community grow!!
I love working with younger kids! It’s one of my happy places, whether I’m teaching my piano students or helping out at my church’s kids ministry. If anyone from the ages 1-12 comes along, theres a 99% chance we’ll get along great!
I know what it’s like to get your world flipped upside down within a couple of minutes with diabetes. It’s a scary experience! And to be honest, diabetes still hits me like a freight train sometimes. One thing I constantly looked for was someone my age who was actually doing well. I wanted to hear that maybe this was hard for other kids as well, and to know that I wasn’t just super emotional. We decided it was high time that someone did something like that.
Well, here we are! So just know we got you, God’s got you, and there is nothing that we can’t face!
Now on to some…
