Congratulations on a healthy baby and don’t forget - no amount of worrying can prevent it or change anything (easier said than done!) keep pressing on and being a great mother! Thanks for watching.

You will get it dialed in better each year. It doesn’t get easier, you just get better at it!

It gets much easier over time and as technology advances, trust me 😉

im 4 years iin. Best nutrition ive found is high carb low fat, whole foods plant based. it does get easier when you learn, but honestly its always a struggle

Thanks a lot Patrick, I'm sure there are a lot more accurate analogies, but that one clicks with me. If you know anyone else that may benefit from this channel please subscribe and share with them!

I have been a diabetic for 6 years too😁

@@emilyyyyy.y i have been for less than a week. does it get easier?

@@Ak-jy8ke I wouldn't say it gets easier, its kind of like working a job 24/7. But once you figure out how to manage your bloodsugars and figure how your body responds to certain things like exercise, it should become a little easier. And a tip I have for you is to not let your diabetes define who you are😁

@@emilyyyyy.y ik but sometimes i just think about the stuff i have to miss out on 😔

@@Ak-jy8ke well you don't really have to miss out on things, as long as you just watch you bloodsugar it should be fine

Lisa, thank you for the kind words. I am already working on the next one so stay tuned!

william duke thanks for the extremely kind words. I’m giving it my best effort. Often I miss the mark, but if one or two of them can really help others than I consider it worth the effort and time. Good luck and keep on keeping on!

TastesLikeBeandip good grief. Thanks a LOT. That is extremely encouraging. I will definitely keep them coming. I had no idea they were even out there on a Reddit post. Thanks a lot. Good luck. You are right. It isn’t a death sentence. It never really gets easier, but you will get a lot better at it (as I’m sure you’ve realized).

Thank you for the kind words Lisa! I will keep them coming and please pay it forward by sharing to whatever T1D groups you are in! Have a great day

Angel Jaimes no problem angel. No doubt that it is a buzzkill but once you own it and manage it, things get back to a version of normal that doesn’t have too great of an impact on your civilian life. If you are still doing PT and hitting the gym then don’t forget to subscribe. The next episode is the first one on sports/fitness. You got this.

Thank you for the comment. It has been a strange few days adjusting to being out on display. I appreciate the kind words.

Jill Mae Creations thank you Jill. I appreciate the kind words. Frankly, if I only were able to keep one item in my arsenal, it would be the CGM. you can’t improve what you don’t measure and I’m sure your son has much better control knowing where his BS is at all times. Good luck to him!

Hannah Lindblom absolutely Hannah I’m excited to be doing it. Please like the vid and share it with anyone that may benefit! Have a great day.

Thanks Candice! Make sure to subscribe and I will come out with one each week! Good luck to your son.

What a unique position you are in to be a positive and understanding presence during what is often a stressful/scary time! Thank you from all of us!

@Sarah Garrett The technology using CGM and pumps is a game changer all for the better. I started using a pump in 2003 and I can count on one hand (actually 4 times) I have had pump problems. Fortunately none were a complete failure just a "This is your pump talking and I'm not feeling quite right". It still was working. Called help desk and had another pump the next day in all cases. Pump and CGM make life a whole easier and less stressful.

PCP MIDDLESBORO thank you. I agree. Some of the comments have been very encouraging and uplifting. I will certainly make more videos. Thank you

I’m really glad it was helpful. Keep pressing on! Please help the cause by sharing this with others that need it!

@@BetweenTwoLines did onto a family centre for type 1. Amazing place.

How do they find out that early on in life?

Thanks a ton Jen! It is really cool to hear that these videos are helpful and encouraging. Good luck to you!

Thanks jasmine! You certainly aren’t alone. It is encouraging for me as well. Stay well!

Thanks Lisa. Absolutely he can still dominate. If he develops any questions just have him email the channel and I will address anything I can help with.

Susan Carroll Im so glad it has helped you keep a positive mindset! You got this! Please subscribe and I will keep them coming! Good luck Susan!

LadyWeasel well I certainly hope this channel will help you not only parent a diabetic, but to gain a greater understanding of what they are feeling. Thank you for watching and please subscribe!

Thanks! I did subscribe.

Sierra L thanks a lot Sierra. I appreciate you taking the time to say that. More to come that I hope helps both you and your son! It is frustrating but it isn’t a death sentence. He will still go on to do great things.

No problem Suzanne! Don’t forget to subscribe and share with any that could benefit!

Thanks a lot Tyler! I sincerely appreciate the words of encouragement. I am looking forward to it as well.

My 3 year old daughter was diagnosed last November and I'm so happy you decided to help us with your engagement. I pray that God blesses you on this(KZfaq) journey and as well with your T1D. 😁🙏❤

Rachael Hall congratulations Rachel. That’s great to hear. Sounds like you owned it not long after being diagnosed. Impressive. If you can think of anyone else that could benefit from this channel please subscribe and share it!

What was your symptoms?

Absolutely George. Thank you for taking the time to comment. I will certainly be working towards some how-to videos on different pieces of diabetic equipment and software such as insulin pumps, CGM, +xdrip, spike, etc, I really appreciate the encouragement!

Liana Ercoban thanks so much for saying that. It is certainly an exposed feeling having done the first video but I was sure I wasn’t the only one that felt that way. Subscribe and like, I have another coming Monday! Seriously though, thank you for the comment. You got this.

Heather Jeffrey good grief - those are excellent topics. #1 & #2 I have written down to cover in the future and know the feelings very well. #3 is one I’m still exploring myself. That may be something I share in real time as that journey becomes a more common one.

That is another great analogy. I am going to use that!

Thanks a lot Mike! I can only imagine the peace of mind it provides a parent to be able to know her blood sugar in real time. Vo Gols.

Angela Wheeler thanks Angela! I’ll keep them coming!

Thanks ton Haley! dont forget to subscribe and you'll know each time one comes out! Take care!

Thank you Suzy! Keep strong! Don’t forget to subscribe and please share to others you think may benefit

Kim Butny thanks Kim! I hope he finds encouragement (and some laughs) from it. Good luck to your son!

Allison Harding thanks Allison make sure to subscribe and like! I’ve got a new one launching Monday

That is awesome. Having a CGM is the real deal. Huge difference. Thanks for the sub! Please pay it forward by sharing to whatever T1D groups you are in!

Hey thanks a lot! I appreciate the comment. I will have a new one out one Monday!

Thanks Eric! Diabetes is a royal pain in the rear. With that said, it isn't a death sentence for your son. Once he gets the hang of it he will be back in business as an even more disciplined version of himself. Cheers and thanks for watching!

Good for you because you can be a big help to him because he'll probably need it at some point.

Missy Kirchem absolutely Missy. On my schedule is an episode devoted specifically to that topic. The effect blood sugar had on athletic performance was huge. That is the episode I look forward to the most. Make sure to subscribe and share!

Thanks a LOT Sara! That is encouraging to hear. Please subscribe and share with anyone you think may also like it!

@@BetweenTwoLines indeed! I did! Put a link on my fb too

Sara McKinley that is awesome. Thank you!

Thanks a lot Chris, I agree. Sometimes it is informative and others is it encouraging. My goal is for this channel to be a combination of the two. Have a great day.

Connor Milton you got it Connor. Please share!

Thanks awesome Tyler. Keep up the work man you got this!

Much appreciated brother. More to come soon. If by a few episodes in I haven't touched on a topic you are interested in, don't hesitate to leave a comment!

I get it for sure. I hid it for years. Now I realize it was nothing to be ashamed of. Own it and press on.

@Sarah There is a possible cure waiting to be approved right now. It's called Teplizumab.

I will certainly make this a priority. The subtitles do a poor job when left to their on interpretations so I need to partner up with someone fluent in Italian to make sure everything is accurate. I will get to work on this!

@@BetweenTwoLines subtitles in english i meant, so you can read what you cant get. Thank you 🙏💪

Corinna Bajocco this has already been done. To see the English CC click the three dots to see video options, then closed captions, then select English. 👍

@@BetweenTwoLines great!

Thanks a lot! That is an extremely complex topic that I am far from being an authority on. If you find someone that has knowledge in this industry and has put together information, I’d love to watch it too! What a great idea

No problem Ashlee! If you are interested in seeing more videos, please share and subscribe! Thank you!

one of my first questions when I got diagnosed was probably "when will it go away" lol

the OmiPod Dash is a lot better than having to take shots everyday, if you could get it I would recommend it

I don't have any fear of it, and I cope with it by eating delicious and unhealthy sweets. One of the few times you can eat sugary foods with a clean conscience (at least while young lol). You've got this!

Alice Potter hi Alice! You are nearly to the video you seek lol. Try this one out! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n8dlfLtoqsCvdH0.html

Alice, hang in there and keep reaching out. Of all years to be diagnosed this had to be a tough one indeed. So many feel isolated in general, but to be so and trying to get a handle on your new normal while living through such a chaotic year is even more of a challenge. Know you are not alone and keep up with Levy and find others if you feel a need to broaden your support system. I keep it to a few only to learn from different stories as we all have so much to share. Be kind and gentle with yourself and know that every day can be different until you find a path which works best for you and your body!! Hang in there, as Levy has shown already with his channel, you can do this!! May you find the support you need much sooner than later. Hopefully by now you ARE already feeling much better!! Kudos to Levy for being so well grounded with telling his story!!

@@gastrogal5353 thanks so much! Yes, it’s been a challenging year for sure. I’m hanging in there!

I’ve had type ones diabetes since I was seven and I’m now 16 and trust me it does get easier and you will be able to work through it. There’s gonna be a ton of ups and downs and you’re gonna feel amazing at some moment and then completely offload others but you gotta keep your head on the goal. You gotta keep your head up. You gotta be able to face these things and say OK I have this and I can work through it. Yes, it’s gonna be hard at sometimes but it’s so worth it, having diabetes, you’re gonna be able to keep your head up and you’re gonna realize life is still just as valuable with it

There really is no normal for you at the moment. Could be a ton of reasons why you have no appetite. No worries! Once you start to acclimate you will more than likely give insulin as needed for food, not food as needed for insulin. Good luck. You got this!

Thanks for your advice
