Type 1 Diabetes

Type one diabetes affects kids from a young age and they have to learn to live with this for the rest of their lives. My little sister Lauren has diabetes and she wears an insulin pump and she still lives a normal life and is one of the most mature yet outgoing kids I've ever known.
