I went to visit a little girl that I know at the hospital today. She is currently in ICU. Her parents brought her to the ER after she exhibited several serious symptoms such as vomiting, extreme thirst, and incontinence of bladder. The doctors informed her parents that she had Type 1 Diabetes, she is only nine years old. She will have to watch her diet, and endure insulin injections daily.
She is like sunshine bringing warmth to everyone around her. She amuses me with her obsession with Hannah Montana, and educates me on the importance of knowing who the Jonas Brothers are. I hope that she feels supported and loved, and emerges from this situation with renewed strength.
