Grace for the Cure: Diabetic Alert Dog for Gracie

Hi:

In March 2018, our 4 year old daughter, Gracie Sevilla (now 5), was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, an incurable, intense, auto-immune disease that inflicts mostly children in their grade school years; a disease whose cause is unknown and is not due to diet or family history, but rather genetics and environmental triggers which cause the Pancreas to no longer produce life saving Insulin (a hormone in the body) necessary for blood glucose production and functioning – both high and low levels of blood glucose cause diabetic ketoacidosis which leads to diabetic coma, swelling in the brain and then, death.

 

 

Our campaign goal for her is a Diabetic Alert Dog, a specially trained service animal that has the ability to quickly detect changes in her blood that could be life threatening. The dog then alerts the person with Diabetes and those around her, allowing time for treatment of both highs and lows.

 

 

We don’t currently have a dog and it makes perfect sense for our family pet to be specially trained to alert us of Gracie’s life-threatening highs and lows.

You can read about Gracie, Type 1 Diabetes, and how it has impacted our family in a recent article on her by Insulin Nation .

https://insulinnation.com/living/child-with-t1d-commits-whole-family-to-care/

Gracie was also featured with her Ohio State Buckeyes Under Armour Flag Football League on Channel 2 & 9 news – Los Angeles – for not only being the youngest in the league, the only girl for that matter, but also the only Type 1 Diabetic in the league; wearing her Dexcom G6 under her shorts, on her thigh, as he played. You can read about her here .

https://sevillalocalmedia.com/gracie-sevilla-and-the-championship-game-under-armour-under-the-lights-riverside-corona/

 

 

Type 1 Diabetes, not to be confused with adult onset Type 2 Diabetes, requires moment by moment, day to day treatment and left untreated, can be immediately fatal. Persons with Type 1 Diabetes require Insulin injections after every meal; especially those which contain carbohydrates, as well as finger pricks to check blood glucose levels. Continuous Glucose Monitoring Devices (CGM’s) lessen the need for finger sticks.

 

 

Gracie receives multiple injections of Insulin daily after every meal and snack and one night time dose of a different type of Insulin (Lantus) which is long acting; periodic finger sticks and now wears a Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitoring system that has a filament like catheter that inserts under the skin; continuously testing glucose levels and that which transmits a reading to our phones every 5 minutes and sounds alarms alerting us of dangerous highs and lows so that we may treat her high and low symptoms with Insulin or carbohydrate fluids or foods.

The Dexcom g6 is an absolute blessing for us and a literal life-saver. Gracie’s mother, Melodie, fought with her Pediatrician and our insurance company to get the “non-essential” medical device which even with insurance, is extremely expensive (each sensor cost several hundred dollars and needs to be switched out every 10 days or sooner and the transmitter or “brain” is 3 times as expensive and also last a relatively short period of time). These components often fail well before their expiration and long waits and troubleshooting sessions with tech support; fights with the pharmacies and insurance companies, much less the Pediatrician, are common.

DIABETIC ALERT DOG: Although the continuous glucose monitoring device (Dexcom G6) is essential to us (can’t imagine not having it after having had it), man-made technology fails and there is something much more reliable and would be such an amazing blessing to the entire family, especially little Gracie, who loves animals.

A well-trained Diabetic Alert Dog.

 

 

Properly trained, certified Diabetic Alert Dogs can alert of a life-threatening, impending high or low blood glucose level as much as 15 minutes sooner than a medical device and even a finger prick. God has designed these dogs with such an amazing keen seen of smell; instinct and loyalty for it’s owners that the dog will wake up or otherwise alert a sleeping parent or child to let them know that the blood glucose levels are rising dangerously fast or dropping dangerously low; such a loveable and reliable medical alert system to help strengthen what we already have and provide for just a little bit of peace of mind in the midst of what is a constant stressor and source of great anxiety.

Gracie’s dad is a great provider for his family but in considering this newly learned option (Diabetic Alert Dog); factoring in our family’s gifts and talents and our no choice other than to accept this disease and meet it head on, we’ve decided to take this route to help raise not only funds to purchase a specially trained dog from a reputable and certified Diabetic Alert Dog organization, but also to raise awareness about this horrible disease; something we are committed to doing for the rest of our lives.

Diabetic Alert Dogs from reputable, certified, licensed trainers cost in the tens of thousands of dollars and most insurance companies do not cover the costs of diabetic alert dogs or service dogs in general, because their effectiveness has not yet been proven in scientific studies. Therefore, for the reasons stated above and for this reason, we invite you to join little Gracie in our “Grace for the Cure” fundraiser for a Diabetic Alert Dog for Gracie, and to raise T1D (Type 1 Diabetes) awareness.

 

 

We believe that God can instantly heal Gracie and all who suffer and pray earnestly that He will. However, we know that in this life we shall suffer and take the good with the bad, praising Him unceasingly and remaining steadfast in our faith in Him. In the meantime, and in the midst of this fiery trial, He has been ever faithful and has blessed us in so many ways. It is our prayer that all who suffer and deal daily with this terrible disease will receive healing soon and that God will bless us all with a cure, and continue to fill us with His grace and mercy. Until there is a cure for Type 1 Diabetes, there is Gracie, and if God wills, she shall have her furry companion soon enough while raising awareness.

Grace for the Cure!

Richard Martinez of RISE PROGRAMS: True Love

Richard Martinez Rise Programs

LOVE SUFFERS LONG

I have search and read many definitions of LOVE but the Bible to me has the best description of what love looks like.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8
“Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have.
Love doesn’t strut,
Doesn’t have a swelled head,
Doesn’t force itself on others,
Isn’t always “me first,”
Doesn’t fly off the handle,
Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn’t revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end.
“Love never dies”

In verse 4 another translations goes like this, “love suffer long and is kind…”
What does it mean when it says, “suffers long”? Love involves sacrifice. We can sacrifice and not love, but we cannot love and not sacrifice. Anyone can give something that is expensive but it’s a whole other thing to give away something that is valuable. It takes sacrifice to give something away that is valuable.
It feels like is cost much more when we don’t “feel” like doing or giving it. Love is this way, many times we do not “feel” like doing or giving it and we value our “feelings” and “wants” so much, it takes sacrifice to give them up in order to love someone else. I believe learning to love is the truest and foundational calling on our all of our lives.

In todays culture love & lust, & Joy & pleasure are being confused and mixed up. When pleasure becomes the goal in life and relationships things get weird. God likes pleasure and made it for us but when it becomes a focus in our life our relationships it will begin to rob us of Joy & Love.
Love is not love until it cost you something to give it away. Love suffers long and if you do not ever want to get hurt or feel pain in your life, you will never have the truest and most powerful form of love. You can have pain & not have love but you cannot have love without pain. The door that opens to love creates the opportunity for pain.

Fellowship of suffering is attaching ourselves to those who are suffering and struggling in the midst of helping them out. When you love someone you will end up loving those who are suffering therefore you will suffer when loving.
Rom. 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.

Phil. 3:7-10 But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death
2Tim. 2:3 You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

When you love someone who is suffering your soul will begin to suffer with him or her because of the love that ties your souls together. This doesn’t mean to invite people in your life to punish you or to torment you in the name of suffering long. Suffering for Christ does not mean having a martyr spirit & not being able to enjoy like, have money, have pleasure etc… Suffering long is LOVING LONG.
