TheraSense | Maker of the FreeStyle Blood Glucose Monitor and Meter

FreeStyle Flash is the latest in a line of innovative FreeStyle products for people with diabetes, following the FreeStyle Blood Glucose Monitoring System and the FreeStyle Tracker Diabetes Management System, which are exceptional because of the TheraSense test strip technology that they incorporate. This technology allows you to take a blood sample of just 0.3 microliters — or about the size of a pinhead — from any one of multiple sites on the body, including the forearm, upper arm, thigh, calf, hand, as well as the fingers, thus eliminating virtually all the pain of testing and encouraging more frequent testing.

So...what is Cri du Chat anyway?

2005-02-05T11:24:00.000-08:00

No the child in this little story does not have Diabetes but I thought it might be of interest to you. It is a story of profound family love and commitment in the face of possible devastating circumstances. You see Beth, Julia's mother, is a personal friend of mine and her wisdome, devotion and quiet solitude has been a great strength and comfort to me through many difficult time. It is my srong conviction that their story will help you too.

So...what is Cri du Chat anyway?
In this blog we want to celebrate our precious Julia...our littlest angel who was born with Cri Du Chat Syndrome on December 10, 2002. My name is Beth and I am the mommy of this great treasure and her 4 sisters and 2 brothers. I hope that by chronicling Julia's Journey here we can provide a positive picture of children with disabilities in general, and those with Cri du Chat in particular.

Cri du Chat is the result of a terminal deletion on the short arm of chromosome 5. This syndrome is characterized by significant cognitive deficit, moderate to severe developmental delay, identifying physical characteristics and a myriad of health issues.

Julia is our 7th child and was diagnosed with CDC at 3 weeks of age. You can imagine how we felt when an internet search revealed that children with CDC live an average of 4 years, never learn to walk or develop speech, and are plagued by many behavioral difficulties. Although new studies are emerging that refute much of the earlier research, the negative information that we found is still the first info that most new parents unearth in their search for answers about CDC.

We have found in the 2 years since Julia's diagnoses that although there are many developmental challenges, there is also much beauty and many successes in the lives of those who have CDC. As one grandmother said of her granddaughter who has CDC..."Although we long for her to have a normal life, we wouldn't trade her for any "normal" child in the world."

We are very interested in meeting other people who may be facing the same sorts of challenges that we are. For more information about CDC please visit Julia's website at www.celebratingjulia.com.

children with DIABETES - What is Type 1 Diabetes?: "Symptoms of Diabetes
Once over 90% of the beta cells are destroyed, the body is no longer able to regulate blood sugar levels and the patient develops some or all of the classic symptoms of diabetes:
excessive thirst
excessive urination
excessive hunger
weight loss
fatigue
blurred vision
high blood sugar level
sugar and ketones in the urine
vaginal yeast infections in girls (even infants and toddlers)
While the symptoms appear abruptly, the development of the disease actually occurs over a much longer period of time. "

What Causes Type 1 Diabetes?

2005-01-22T21:58:00.000-08:00

What Causes Type 1 Diabetes?: "What Causes Type 1 Diabetes?
Diabetes is an autoimmune disease. That means the body's defense system attacks some of the body's own cells. In type 1 diabetes, the cells in the pancreas that make insulin are destroyed, and therefore they are no longer capable of making insulin.
We don't know exactly why this happens, but we do know that some people are born with a tendency to develop diabetes. Then something 'triggers' the onset of the disease. It may be a virus that triggers the onset, or it may be something in the environment. There is nothing a parent can do to prevent this from happening."

Feeding a Child With Diabetes: "Type 1 diabetes (insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, or IDDM) is the most common form of diabetes seen in children, but it can occur at any age. Type 1 diabetes used to be called juvenile diabetes. It occurs when the pancreas loses the ability to produce enough insulin. People with type 1 diabetes must take daily injections of insulin to control their blood sugar levels."

Feeding a Child With Diabetes: "What Is Diabetes?
Diabetes is an umbrella term for a group of diseases involving problems with how the body produces and uses the hormone insulin. Insulin is produced by the pancreas and acts to control blood sugar (glucose) levels by helping glucose move into the cells of the body where it's used to produce energy. Glucose is a simple sugar that's released from the foods we eat when they're digested in the stomach and intestines. If your child has diabetes, his or her blood glucose levels may be abnormally high at times because your child's body lacks enough insulin to properly move sugar from the blood into thecells."
