I NEVER thought this would happen!!! Pediatric ICU

#largefamily
It has been a long couple days. I am so thankful that my daughter is alive and now settled back in with the children. Today I am going to go over what happened to my 5 year old daughter as well some signs to look for.

[@mommabear2many]

I'm so sorry this video keeps freezing around the 17 mark. I have looked into the issue and I am not able to resolve without refilming. Which unfortunately I am unable to do currently. I will be uploading an update and some challenges I am having on Wed. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience.

[@Jverburgh]

I was wondering what was going on.

[@cheriland7461]

I believe it is the ad that plays at that time frame. I found that if you skip the ad, then leave the video alone for a bit, then go back to it. The video eventually plays to the end.

[@mommabear2many]

[@robinshaw4853]

Wow, that's a big job figuring out what to feed her! Kudos to you!

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you!

[@bcerliano]

You’re lucky you actually got a doctor who seemed to understand the interactions at play. Many treat diabetics but don’t truly understand what’s going on with the body.

[@mommabear2many]

We are blessed to at the new endocrinologist her dr has diabetes so he is so understanding!

[@dianelove2648]

Iam so zmazed of the strength you have.i love hearing you speak your faith. You are truely amazing

[@deniseodaniels7356]

praying for your daughter. glad she is feeling better. so sorry.

[@SunFlower-tq5mc]

Glad all perhaps is not well, but at least is better and hopefully you and your girl can get some sleep. And it’s definitely not by accident that that new doc started just a couple of days before. Still praying for her, for you, for all involved helping you figure out the diet thing because it’s not easy and can be frustrating. To God be the glory for showing you what to do. Have a wonderful weekend.

Yes I agree God had it all worked out.

[@MayflowerHomeschool]

My heart goes out to you! The same thing happened to my 1 year old 😢 thirst, dehydration, high urine output, lethargic. But it was July in Florida so I thought it was just from the heat and playing outside. I never thought to check his blood sugar. He went into diabetic ketoacidosis and almost went into a coma 😭 it was when he started breathing heavy and was so tired that I finally brought him to the ER. I feel so guilty, I should’ve known the signs. I should’ve gotten him help sooner. His blood sugar in the ER was in the 600s, and it took them 6 hours to figure out what was wrong. He was breathing heavy, lethargic, his lips were turning blue. they were getting ready to put a breathing tube in when they finally found out what was wrong and lifeflighted him to the pediatric ICU. There needs to be more education on T1D. The symptoms started 3 months before his diagnosis last July. I’m so thankful you caught it early!! Good job being on top of your sweet daughter’s needs!!

[@mommabear2many]

Yes I agree about education! I had no clue either. Hugs. How old is your son now?

[@MayflowerHomeschool]

@@mommabear2many many hugs to you too! I know it’s hard on the daily keeping up with it all. I’ve had many cry sessions. Does your daughter use a dexcom? He will be 3 in August. He was 1 year 11 months when he was diagnosed

[@skrantz9473]

I was diagnosed at 20 and went on to have 6 amazing children, we run a cattle ranch, hike, do all the things! I know you have to normally wait a while from diagnosis but if you can get an insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor it would make it much easier on you and her!

[@mommabear2many]

Yes the endocrinologist did mention this once she is stable.

[@VikingUffDa]

Prayers! You’re truly amazing!

[@KerriBrennan-lx9hv]

Just saw this video and boy do I get the stress of this situation. In 2003 my 5 year old son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I am a pediatric nurse and recognized lot of little things like you. His first bs that we checked was 463. I have learned so much in the last 23 years and Jake has been on an insulin pump and continuous glucose monitor for many years now. There are other autoimmune diseases that are associated with type 1 diabetes that she should be screened for.. let me know if you would like to pick my brain. Best wishes

My daughter got it at age 8. My husband has it also. I could write book. The best thing is the dexcom or freestyle monitor. No more finger sticks.

[@debrabates7446]

Our son was diagnosed at 6 years old and is now 31. He is doing amazing. He’s an industrial mechanic, has a 1A truck driving license, got certified as a scuba diver, husband, father, and very energetic, adrenaline loving man. He has a pump and a Medtronic tester. It is definitely a learning curve. We are a farming, whole food eating, garden growing, canning family also. Don’t let people tell you it’s anything you did or that it will limit her life.

Prayers for your daughter. I sometimes say God led me, God put it on my heart, or God spoke to me and people who really don't know God, will say "What do you mean, God spoke to you"? They think I'm hearing voices and question my mental state. Lol. They don't understand that a thought that pops into your head or an instant download of information IS God's voice or leading. Keeping her in my prayers and you too. I know it's hard on us Mama's when something happens to our children. I'm also so, so sorry for the loss of your son.

[@mommabear2many]

Thank you! I appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

[@njsmkmmsthatsit3518]

Oh wow poor little thing. Must be extremely hard when she’s so little and getting all those jabs and manipulation to get a vein, especially on a child that doesn’t have the faintest understanding. My oldest brother had a friend since childhood who went into a diabetic coma and died. His Diabetes started because of food poisoning from a wholemeal chicken salad sandwich, he bought in a cafe. Apparently it was the tomato in the sandwich that caused the food poisoning. Who would understand that sliced and kept tomatoes are a big culprit in food poisoning? I’d immediately think chicken not the tomatoes. Anyway because he didn’t know he had diabetes he went into a coma and couldn’t be saved. Big healthy fellow gone forever. I didn’t realise you lost a son, what happened to him? You are an extremely strong woman. The more I watch about you the more impressed I am that you keep soldering on. You remind me allot of my own mother. (Only the highest of complement to you) All the very best.

[@lemon-pecanzebradan7684]

My daughter was diagnosed with type 2 at age 6. Bed wetting and constant thirst. I didn’t know those were signs of diabetes either. The struggle to feed them right is difficult also.

I had it with my second pregnancy and that was not fun I had to check 5 -8 times a day and altered my diet the funny thing is I lost weight during my pregnancy with my daughter I lost 30 pounds and she was 8 pounds. I hope everything settles out and you can get a routine in place to make life a little easier take care and stay safe.

Thank you for sharing that about your daughter. I am diabetic and I'm a wondering now that you've told the signs if I might have had it since childhood because alot of those same things happened with me. Also I can have my daughters alerted with their own children as well. Thank God He told you to check your baby and thank God he put that doctor there to treat her. She is such a beautiful and sweet child . Thank you and God bless your family sweet lady. I pray many blessings on you and your family. ❤❤❤❤

[@mommabear2many]

Type 1 always requires insulin injections before a meal if they don’t get an injection they would go into DKA and die. So it’s unlikely you had since childhood. But your childhood diet may have played a part in your diabetes you may have started feeling the affects as your pancreas was struggling. There’s also a 1 1/2 I’m not sure about that one. I’m sorry you are battling diabetes.

Your local hospital sounds like our local hospital. SCARY, and we have been told the EXACT same thing about not having a “bed” at the transplant Hospital in the neighboring state 150 miles away!!!! Our local hospital is deadly!!!

[@lemon-pecanzebradan7684]

My daughter is medically special needs with multiple co morbidities. She was a pediatric liver transplant patient, 4 yrs post transplant. Type 2 diabetes, asthma, and alot of other issues. We spent 23 days in patient at her transplant hospital. Out of control blood sugar and liver rejection. My daughter is insulin dependent also. I am glad she is doing better.

[@Jverburgh]

I will definitely be praying for you and your daughter. I am so sorry that your daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. That isn't good at all. I have Type 2 diabetes and I take two oral medications for the diabetes. I also take two insulins for the diabetes as well. I take Toujao, which is a long lasting insulin. I also take Aprida, which is a short acting insulin and I take that three times a day. It will take time to get adjusted to a new life style, but it will come.

[@mamasheartisfull]

Do you live in Maine? My mother's side of the family is from Maine. My cousin had a horrible doctor in Bangore. Doctor was more concerned about missing his plane than to clean out my cousins wound before stitching him. He had pebbles in his cut that became infected.

Type 1 is so hard in the beginning, all the carb counting and checking and double checking the amount of insulin. But before you know it, you will have it all memorized and you will be able to look at a plate of food and immediately know the amount of carbs.
