kids off school for the entire week.....

I had my neice this week  monday thru friday for a minimum of 8 hours per day.....my neice tallia is a T1D.

I think that is the most time I have had her that many days in a row since she was diagnosed more than 2 years ago.

 I am in awe of my sister and brother-in-law with how hard they must have to work to keep Tallia healthy. I did not have site changes or refilling insulin pump or all the other "stuff" that goes along with her care along with  the worry and constant checking and monitoring ....it is exhausting.

 Any parent caring for a child with a disease, illness,or handicap is a unbelievable caring and strong person. I salute you.
