All For 1 And 1 For Otto

08/17/2025

This is part of getting prepared for school ✏️& Sports 🏈 ⚽ living the T1D life 🎒 locker bag, teachers bag, bus ride bag, soccer bag, football bag and the refills will begin with these snacks and juice boxes. They keep Otto from going too low with his glucose numbers. Ideally range is between 80 and 120 that is what you and I are in if you do not have T1D. But Otto and other T1D’s can drift ↘️ or drop ⏬ suddenly for many different reasons or just because he has T1D. In the dangerous low levels like 60s 50s 40s and 30s and below ⬇️ you have to bring up your glucose numbers immediately, but not too much. It’s a fine line that you learn overtime. Otto usually start with a 15 g snack or juice box depending on how fast he is dropping and where his number is. A lot of it is a guessing game. The game Otto play every day. ♟️ So this is why we prepare with snack bags. There’s many things he has to carry around and sometimes it gets overwhelming at times 😔 so the best thing that a T1D Mom could do is help and prepare. ✔️

T1D life

07/29/2025

When duty calls as a T1D caregiver or just the mom no matter if they are at a sleepover or at the house you make miracles happen 24/7
Otto’s Dexcom failed at a slumber party and no one wants to sleep all night wondering what his numbers are or wake up every couple hours to put your finger. At any moment Ottos glucose numbers could drop into serious life-threatening level or as well skyrocket into dangerous, high levels that will damage his organs with long-term effects
Ottos dexcom is very important to us!! The Dexcom allows us to see his glucose numbers it’s supposed to hold on and work for 10 days. As a medical device nothing’s perfect especially on a 12-year-old sweaty boy lol 💙💉🩸

07/29/2025

Mom’s going out of town for the weekend so getting together all of Otto’s materials for the Omni Pod changes and the Dexcom changes in little to go grab bags  with everything he would need just to make it a little easier 💙

07/20/2025

When you think he had everything packed for the sleepover and one of the medical devices fall off and that’s the one he didn’t have an extra of 🤪 midnight T1D medical mom run
I got you, boo mama always does 🫶🏼

Type 1 Diabetes: A 24/7 Battle for Life

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Without insulin, the body cannot regulate blood sugar levels, making daily survival dependent on constant monitoring and medical intervention. Unlike Type 2 Diabetes, T1D is not caused by diet or lifestyle and has no cure. Management requires a relentless cycle of blood sugar checks, insulin dosing, and vigilance to prevent dangerous highs (hyperglycemia) and life-threatening lows (hypoglycemia) 24/7 this disease does not rest. 

The photo showns the staggering amount of medical supplies required to keep Otto and Chase or a child living with T1D, alive for just one year. Every item represents a crucial part of there daily routine:

• Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs) (Dexcom G7 sensors and patches) track blood sugar levels in real-time, reducing the need for finger pricks.
• Insulin Pens and Vials provide the life-sustaining hormone Otto’s body no longer produces.
• Lancets and Test Strips are still needed for manual blood sugar checks when technology fails.
• Pump and CGM Adhesives help secure devices to Otto’s skin, ensuring they function properly.
• Emergency Glucagon Kits (red boxes) serve as a life-saving intervention in case of severe low blood sugar.
• Measuring Tools and Skincare Items help prevent infections and keep devices in place.
• Personalized and Fun Accessories (like the decorated Dexcom patches) help make this overwhelming routine a little brighter for a child facing this daily battle.

This is the reality of Type 1 Diabetes—an invisible yet constant fight requiring unwavering attention every hour of every day. Organizations like All For 1 and 1 For Otto work to support newly diagnosed families, ensuring they have access to the essentials they need to navigate this lifelong journey.

We believe in a future free from the constant challenges of Type 1 diabetes. Join us for our annual Kentucky 👒 Derby fundraiser Now at an exciting new location 🏇 as we come together🫶🏼 to drive progress toward a cure.
