Our group was formed because we have a lot in common, and are a good fit for one another. We are all interested in helping people with Type 1 Diabetes, and we all get along and work well together. Between us all, we can accomplish many tasks and work very efficiently and effectively. With our group, we will definitely be able to get things done and hopefully make a significant difference in the community. We are looking forward to getting started on our project!
Type one diabetes is a chronic condition to where the pancreas doesn't produce insulin. If it does produce any, it's a very little amount of insulin. Type 1 diabetes cannot be cured. This type is mostly diagnosed in children and young adults. The body will break down all of the sugars and starches you eat which becomes glucose. The body will soon use that glucose for energy. Type 1 diabetes prevents the children and young adults from being able to utilize that glucose to its full potential.
We feel that type one diabetes is often overlooked because of it only accounting for 10% of all cases of diagnosed diabetes. Many people tend to focus on the other 90% of diagnosed diabetes because type two can be cured. We wanted to help the people affected by type one diabetes because of its minimal concern and its possibility to make difference. Though we understand that we can't cure type one diabetes, we have the dedication and drive to help the millions of lives that type one diabetes affects.
