Prayers requested - Staying the night in the hospital with my son.
✝️ Prayer Request 🕊️
My middle son is a teen. He has been through so much in his short life. Stroke at birth causing cerebral palsy, rare epileptic conditiion cured by brain surgery many years ago.
And today blood sugar was through the roof. He somehow contracted diabetes, likely type 1. He is not overweight, he is pure blood.
He basically has ptsd from all the procedures and doctor visits. And now he may have to get insulin shots multiple times a day.
It hurts me so bad to watch him go through so much.
Please pray for him.
Thank you.
I am going to try and get some sleep now, will read through any comments in the morning.
Very happy to hear that, fren. Although I'm guessing your parents had Type 2 diabetes. It sounds like PL's boy might have Type 1 and unfortunately there's not typically a path to resolve that problem via diet.
Praying for them both and for your parents to stay healthy.
T1 is usually caused by a trigger that causes the body's immune system to attack the pancreas, decreasing its ability to produce insulin. As an auto-immune condition, remission is always possible but rare. I would investigate those substances known to cause remission, such as Hydroxychloroquine.
