We had a week of check-ups. First the pediatric opthamologist. Her eyes are checked once a year for diabetic retinopathy. She still has beautiful blue eyes and no retinopathy.
Here she is using her time wisely and knitting. That's my girl!
Then, we had an endocrinologist appointment. She has to go every three months for a check-up. Once a year she has to do blood work. This sweet lady has been drawing her blood since she was diagnosed in 2003.
And, this is our wonderful endocrinologist, Dr. Ana Karabel. She was sweet enough to talk to us about Lindsi's untimely death. She gave comfort and warning and challenged Amanda to be an ambassador for diabetes. She was thankful that Amanda has Time to give warning and wished all kids could have an alert dog.
