NDAM SUBMISSION – ERIC – #KNOWSURVIVETHRIVE

My diabetes story started just after my wife, Whitney, and I had our second child. It was the end of December 2016, we now had 2 beautiful boys, Brody and Daxson, and we were now a family of four.

Family Thanks Bret Michaels For Sending Their Son, Kyle To Diabetes Summer Camp.

On May 15th, 2015, our son, Kyle, was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. It was the worst day of my entire life. My husband was working out of town and I…
