Alina is a capable, creative, and cheerful girl. She does well at school and has many friends. She loves drawing and attends a creative club where, in addition to drawing, she learns to sew, do crafts, and make accessories for her loved ones. She also enjoys oriental dancing.
Due to the illness that came upon her at an early age, the girl grew up and became independent sooner than most. She is now 10 years old, and for more than half of her life she has been living under constant monitoring and blood sugar checks every day, as she has had type 1 diabetes since the age of four. Alina is used to measuring her blood sugar with a glucometer, administering insulin injections, and keeping track of her glucose levels. She is currently learning to calculate her food intake independently. And it all seems to be working out – but due to age-related hormonal changes, her blood sugar often fluctuates and there is no stability. Any physical activity also affects Alina's blood sugar, so she always carries sweets and insulin with her.
Fortunately, continuous monitoring through sensors allows her to see her blood sugar level on a phone screen without dozens of daily pricks. Thanks to the sensors, Alina can respond to glucose fluctuations in time, and her mother can remotely monitor her daughter's condition and feel more at ease about her safety during lessons, dance classes, and walks. This is not simply a convenience – it is a vital tool that helps prevent dangerous episodes and maintain stability in the girl's daily life.
Let's join in supporting Alina and help her receive sensors so that she can continue to live actively, develop, and safely pursue her favorite activities. Every contribution is a step toward the girl's stable health, peace of mind for her mother, and the chance for Alina not to limit herself because of her illness.
