Meet the Diabetic Watchdog

"The Vampire & Her Watchdog"

Had the opportunity to interview a very important person in my daughter Dareian's Life.


Here is the Interview with the Vampire's Watchdog:  Brianna

Trev:  What's it like being friends with Dareian dealing with her diabetes?

Brianna: It's like being friends with any other friend but you have to watch what she eats, and how she acts.

T: Do you worry about her more then your other friends?

B: Yes; if she doesn't remember to take her needles or test her sugar or whatever, I remind her 

T: Do you think Dareian's a good Diabetic? 

B: Most of the time, but sometimes she forgets stuff and I have to remind her to do things like  count carbs, test her sugar and only occasionally take her insulin. I let her know I am there to watch her, and say things like, "Dareian, take your needle, or don't forget your tester, if she's coming over for a sleep over."

T: Would you like add anything else?

B: I contantly nag her about it! That's why she does well with her Diabetes.  She is fun to hang out with, just a typical kid.

T: Thanks for talking to me about your friendship with Dareian, and thanks for being her Watchdog.  


After the interview we watched Dareian's Soccer Team kick major butt!
