“399,401 lives lost to Diabetes [as of a 2021 study]. That number is more than a statistic—it’s a reminder of the resilience, strength, and fight that defines our T1D community. 🩸💙 For those of us who live this journey, each day is an opportunity to honor those we’ve lost by living fully and advocating fiercely.
I often ask myself: How do I honor those who’ve inspired my resilience?
1. By understanding them. By learning from their stories and experiences, and how they relate to mine.
2. By living humbly, grateful for every day I wake up with the chance to live freely, even with T1D. This journey isn’t easy, but every step forward is in honor of the lives that have shaped our community. 🦋
Let’s keep raising awareness, building empathy, and advocating for change. Join me in remembering, honoring, and pushing forward. Together, we’re more than our numbers. 🌍
Let’s come together to honor lives lost and raise awareness for T1D. Share your story or tag a warrior who inspires you.
