Click for the Diabetes Hero - Sunday 5/20 Link List.
Let’s end our week on a high note and blog about our “Diabetes Hero”. It can be anyone you’d like to recognize or admire, someone you know personally or not, someone with diabetes or maybe a Type 3. It might be a fabulous endo or CDE. It could be a d-celebrity or role-model. It could be another DOC member. It’s up to you – who is your Diabetes Hero??

Creativity comes in all shapes and forms, so take this where ever it leads you. Write a diabetes poem. Create some D-Art. Record a vlog. Write a diabetes song parody. Scrapbook, collage, sew, knit, crochet . . . . use your favorite creative outlet to create a diabetes project!
It's kind of a combo or 2 for the price of one deal . . .
Obviously, it goes without saying that Nate is my Diabetes Hero and I've written about that many, many times. I honestly do not think I could have diabetes ----- I'm a total wimp! He is so totally amazing and strong and awesome and brave and super adorable!
See ---- total diabetes hero.
For the creativity part I thought I would share this video I made back in 2010 not even a year after Nate's diagnosis. If I made one today which I should have done for this post but didn't have the time. It would be to a much more upbeat song --- maybe . . . The Fighter by Gym Class Heroes or something bad ass like that.
Nonetheless, here is the super sad, going to make you cry video I made for our JDRF Super Nate walk team in 2010:
Enjoy!

Well you weren't kidding about the going to make you cry part....oye. He is a total babe! Even though we are going through the same thing, I think it is so much harder on the itty bitty ones. Much love to you and yours!
Loved the video Laura. I forget how tiny he was at diagnosis.
