We were contacted by the Alberta Diabetes Foundation a few months ago. Arden will be helping them with some fundraising later this year by lending some of her videos and photographs to their efforts. I also made them this short video.
We look forward to helping them any way we can, they have a fantastic organization and if you live in Canada please consider lending them your support! Alberta Diabetes Foundation
We had the camera out for something else when Arden suddenly started to talk about a seizure that she had.
I have been saving every lancet and needle since this site started on August 16, 2007. Here is what they look like all in one place.
The YouTube version of the video is here.
Consider making a charitable donation to the JDRF today.
‘King of Pain’ as performed by Alanis Morissette is available at iTunes here. The original version performed by The Police is available on iTunes here. Please support the artist and join me in thanking them for not suing me for using their song without permission.

Be prepared, the following is tough to watch... It broke my heart to turn on the video camera when I realized Arden’s BG was going low. It was even harder to edit the video. But I honestly think it’s worth sharing if it helps more people understand what living with diabetes is really like. I meet too many people that ask me how old she’ll be when she grows out of it. The sad truth is when other people see Arden she appears normal so people tend not to feel the seriousness of her situation. Short of seeing her have a seizure the following video should keep anyone who sees it from being blasé about diabetes.
