Ellie is 10 year old SWFL local and her hobbies include playing soccer, boating, snorkeling and soaking up sun at the beach! Her commitment to helping others realize they can achieve anything they set their minds to even after diagnosis makes a huge difference in the lives of so many other children. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts Ellie and can’t wait to continue to work together to change lives! 💚

I am a huge fan of tennis and have been following Sascha Zverev's career as a professional tennis player. Zverev was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) at age four. He manages his glucose levels on court by regularly checking his glucose levels and administering insulin during the match mostly on change overs. As a mom of a T1D, I am so happy to see Zverev not letting T1D get in the way of following his dream to become a grand slam champ. Congratulation on winning your first Grand Slam Championship at the French Open.







Looking forward to seeing more children who live with type 1 diabetes follow their dreams and succeed at whaver you want without letting diabetes stand in your way.

Thank you!

Sascha Zverev was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when he was 4 years old. After being diagnosed, doctors told him playing tennis professionally would be almost impossible 😮

His will an determination got him to the final at Roland Garros, where he administered insulin to himself in the middle of his match ‼️

Today, he became a Grand Slam champion, along with an inspiration to anyone facing adversity 🏆
