Test One Drop - Type 1 Diabetes Awareness

The symptoms of undiagnosed and untreated Type 1 diabetes and a life-threatening complication called diabetic ketoacidosis are often confused with influenza, strep, viral infections, and other common illnesses in children and adults, leaving a trail of tragedy and devastation. Test One Drop is an advocacy group committed to the following mission and vision statements. Our mission at Test One Drop

is to bring awareness about diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) to the general public and the medical communities with the purpose of stopping missed or delayed diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes, which can lead to permanent disabilities or death. Our vision is that no child or adult will be diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) as a complication of undiagnosed Type 1 diabetes. We invite you to join us in the UP Rising Against DKA as we advocate for change, educate the general public and medical communities, and support those who have suffered loss caused by unrecognized Type 1 diabetes and DKA. If you believe in our mission and vision, there are many simple ways you can help. See Contact Us under the Test One Drop tab, and we will be in touch.
