Xander’s T1D Journey

Dedicated #T1dAdvocate 🦸🏻‍♂️💉🩸💙 Embark on the full journey with me—check out the complete story on Instagram 📷: @XandersT1DJourney 💙

We had so much fun at the #JDRFOneWalkSD 💙 It was nice meeting so many new people in the #t1dcommunity, and we also met a few people we follow online, like #TypeOneTogether. It was great to talk to them in person, and they even took a pic with Xandy 🥰

Oh, and did I mention @TandemDiabetes was there with @aduvall123? 😳⚾ When I handed Xander his Big Head for the pic, Adam suggested he hold it, which obviously delighted Xandy. He’s a super nice, down-to-earth dude, and it was rad of him to take time out of his busy schedule to inspire some #t1dwarriors to #WalkinTandem 🫶🏼. Love you all so much!

There's not much brings a tear to my eye.....but this 😭
Rebekah has been working hard to manage her diabetes with supervision. She's 8! She's been living with diabetes for 6.5 years but still, what an achievement to be recognised at school for her efforts 💙 #mumofawarrior

Finally got around to making my little parody. I just did it on my phone, so the audio quality isn’t top notch. Hope y’all enjoy! Please share it if you do 💙

What They’ve Got
(Parody - “What I got” by Sublime)
By Josh Montgomery
T1D Dadvocate🦸🏻‍♂️💙

Early in the morning, risin’ from the beeps
Tip toe cross his bedroom as I try to be discreet
Got to find the reason, reason things went wrong
Got to find a reason or I’ll be up all night long
He’d already had insulin but he’s still running high
Hope this gets fixed soon before I lose my frickin’ mind

Well, sleep is too short, so get it while it’s hot
‘Cause you might get compression lows, or you might not Never not erratic, even when I do my best
Keeping all the struggles close to my chest
Take a small nap, it might be what ya need
Time to reach out to the T1 family

Love’s what I got, it’s all from my peeps
And this diabetes family is straight what I need
It comes back to you, you finally fill up that reserve
Trust me on that, it’s bound to occur
Love’s what they’ve got, don’t be too distraught
You may feel alone but you’re not

Cause lovin’ is what they’ve got
I said, remember that
Lovin’ when it’s a lot
And remember that
Lovin’ is what they’ve got
I said, remember that

Try not to sigh when insurance is in the way
I’ve frankly had it with the bills we have to pay
I get angry and start to feel fraught
No time to dawdle, it’s time to take stock
Juggling while writing, reach out to say
The T1D fam’s the only way to stay sane
Let their lovin’, let their lovin’ come back to me

Cause lovin’ is what they’ve got
I said, remember that
Lovin’ when it’s a lot And remember that
Lovin’ is what they’ve got
I said, remember that
Lovin’ when it’s a lot (a lot, a lot, a lot)

What does an octopus have to do with #NeedlePhobia? Many large molecule drugs (to treat cancer, deliver insulin) are best absorbed via injection. A delivery patch inspired by octopus tentacles may = fewer jabs. Until this patch is available, #BuzzyHelps. https://t.co/BLAvhqOoKl

When you’ve got an almost 8-year-old boy with #t1d… there always seems to be a syringe cap lying around the house. Glad he found a creative use for them! 😂
