Help Sarah Get A Diabetic Alert Dog!!

Donation protected

Sarah is a Type 1 Diabetic.  Every day she gets insulin via a pump that is attached to her body 24 hours a day.  There are many ups and downs with diabetes.  With Sarah being only 3 years old (she turns 4 in a few weeks)  she is hypoglycemic unaware and hyperglycemic unaware.  This means she does not know when her blood sugar is low or high.  Low Blood sugar can be fatal.  A low blood sugar  less than 40mdl can cause brain cells to die off and then comes the possibility of coma and death.  

A Diabetic Alert Dog by http://www.tattletailscentdogs.com/ will give us the ability to tell when her blood sugar is low, much sooner than a normal glucose check (dog's are often 10-60 minutes ahead of what a normal meter will read)  We will also be able to have the dog alert us when her blood sugar is high.
