Alexis Olivia



Sometimes we ask "why?" and that is "ok."
My family has had a devastating week... with my favorite little niece going into Diabetic ketoacidosis on Thursday evening,
and being diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes Type I...
This little girl must test her blood, with finger pricks 5 times daily and also, take seven insulin shots daily.....for the rest of her life...she is only 9 years old....Her diet will be completely different...No Twix bars or candy.....No birthday cake and ice cream :( Sleepovers will be difficult, and so will every aspect of her and her family's life.....
Juvenile Diabetes I is the worst possible type, where the pancreas completely shuts down, and does not make insulin.
"Lexi".....
Alexis Olivia's, entire life has changed, and we are trying to push past the sadness...She is very depressed ... quiet & sad.....:(
Lexi is in Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh Pa...
any prayers , advice or guidance...would truly be appreciated....
love , jojo
