Difference between imagination & realty:
Imagine a pain level of one vaccine short or a small needle accidentally entering in human body for fraction of a second
And
now compare above with the factual realty and a real pain, when THE BRAVE KIDS (ages from 6 months to teen age) with type one Diabetes must puncher their small fingers and arms with needle 2160 times a year (6 times a day) for blood glucose level test, and 1080 times a year (3 times a day) to inject insulin in his body via arms, thighs, tummy & other parts of body and parents have to perform all this themselves or monitor all life. On top they have to face a fear of other consequences and not sure when that is going to happen.
Through joint efforts of our associate members in this organization and with the help of our supporters and sponsors we try to share this pain and make life joyful for THE BRAVE KIDS to forget about all above pain and make a big difference in their lives for better future.

Juvenile diabetes has no age limit. Kids starting from 6 months age to 18 years can have this. Earlier they get in age, more difficult is to control. I can feel the pain and sorrow of parents whose kids get this. Poking small fingers and hands with needle 5 to7 times in 24 hours and puncturing their kid’s bodies with insulin syringes 3 to 4 times a day is not easy.
Kids cry and wish this time and moment never had come in their life, deep in heart parents also cry, but life is more important than this needle pain.
I have felt the same pain as parent and hope no other parent get this ever...please join us to share this pain and make life little better for us as parents and for our kids to bring happiness and normal life like feelings.
100,000 kids die around the world without even knowing why...let us stop this by providing information education and path to understand for better control....
