The one question Sharon couldn’t answer when her daughter Allison, now 10, was diagnosed four years ago with type 1 diabetes was, “Mum, when am I going to get over this?”

Allison now knows that part of her body doesn’t work but can’t grasp the concept yet that there could be a cure.

The hardest part for Sharon and her husband was when they bought Allison home from hospital after the initial diagnosis. “If we mess up, it will affect her future,” was the thought that haunted them.

Today, Allison loves school, swimming, calisthenics, basketball and playing the guitar. Sharon describes her as a Superstar.

It’s time to unite to change the future for Allison and other kids living with type 1 diabetes.
