I'd love for a cure, but until the day that occurs I know that Isaac will be able to see a great example in his daddy. So, glad your kids have a wonderful example, too. I'm glad he's such a bright guy and is able to take such great measures on his own to care for his d.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03210820513382353417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248101319829846491.post-89978914908398749562010-07-06T20:58:03.462-07:002010-07-06T20:58:03.462-07:00Thank you for sharing your brother's story.

He brings a great perspective to it - that it isn't him, it's just a part of who he is.

Now I know why Zane acts like he has had a bad dream when he is low.

They can see how their uncle Evan has taken such good care of himself and know that they can have a normal life, just like him. <br /><br />Bekah's future is always on my mind so it is nice to hear from adults with T1 and know that there is hope of a normal life. <br /><br />Thanks for posting this, Meri!Heidi =)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03050944024956869185noreply@blogger.com
