Today is his birthday --he's 5.
Would you pray for him today? Less than a year ago he was my second child diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. He really struggles with it some days and will often ask if he can "not have diabetes today". He gets 4 (at minimum) shots a day and many finger sticks. Most of the time he bears it well but at least a few times a day the shots sting enough to bring him to tears.
He really is a sweetheart and it's heartbreaking to see him suffer.
Thank you.
