Happy Father’s Day


 2016-06-16

This is a shout out to all those incredible dads out there who are taking care of kiddos with type 1 or who have type 1 themselves. From the nighttime blood sugar checks to the emergency snacks, or for you just taking good care of yourself and showing what it means to be brave. It’s tough being a hero everyday of the week, but someone’s gotta do it. And we salute you for stepping up. No—we high five, chest bump, fist bump, high jump, back flip, heel click … you. Because you’re worth it. You deserve a little enthusiasm. For all the due diligence, the belly laughs and the constant compassion that lets us know it’s going to be okay and above all else—that we are loved.
