Hello my name is Dani and I just want to tell you about my wonderful goddaughter Megan.She was diagnosed at age 4 with diabetes.Her mom had dropped her off to stay with my parents and me for the weekend and she was sick.At first we thought that it was just a flu bug she had and that it would pass in a couple of days.But she continued to get extremely worse during the first night she was with us so by morning we called her doctor and he said for us to bring her in immediately.We rushed her to the doctors and he said she was showing signs of diabetes and that he wanted us to take her to the hospital right away.We took her to University of Maryland hospital and they ran some test and tested her blood sugar which was over 800.The doctors and nurses were freaking out and we asked what was wrong and they flat out told us that they didn’t understand how she was still alive or even awake because by rights she should have been in a diabetic coma or dead.Needless to say many of tears and prayer were made that day.So she was in the hospital for a couple of weeks before they could get her blood sugars under control and me being the personal guinea pig to show and prove to her that getting the needles was okay.Now growing up Megan had some small complications here and there but nothing major.It wasn’t until she was all grown up and decided to have a family is where things went bad.Megan now has a beautiful little boy who is a miracle on a whole another level.But she had some complications when she was pregnant with her bloods sugars dropping real low.Now Megan is blind in one eye and partially in the other.She also just found out that she is going through kidney failure.Megan has gone through so much in her life but she never let her diabetes stop her from having a normal life and have no regrets.She is a wonderful mother and a wonderful person.I just wish there was something I could do as far as the kidney failure.She hates the thought of her dying and leaving her little boy without his mommy.The picture I am sending is of my goddaughter Megan and her son on his third birthday.
