The Diabetes Rap
WINNER of the 2008 World Diabetes Day Young Voices video contest in NYC. Thanks to all who voted and viewed!
***DISCLAIMER: if a diabetic goes into a hyperglycemic coma, do not give him/her a glucagon shot. you will kill them. the glucagon is for LOW blood sugar, not high. we were just making a rap joke saying that up is down and down is up.
The boys from IA are at it again with another rap parody! This beat from “independent” tells you all about L.W.’s medical problem. Edited and Directed by Luke Widbin. Video by Derrick Rensink, Drew Zomermaand, and Luke Widbin.
Duration : 0:3:55

Hi, LW,
I used to watch you and your sister when you were little. You’ve come a long way, buddy. I’m sorry that you have to struggle with diabetes, but turning the struggle into something useful and helpful for others is what life should be about. It’s good that you’re doing that.

I’m 12 years old …
I’m 12 years old and I have Diabetes for about 5 years now . I got my insulin pump (Paradigm 512) a year ago , so I was on pens for 4 years. To all of you that are still on pens , if you can get a punp , do it. I was a bit scared about the punp , thinking it would bother me when i play football etc., but now that i have it , my blood glucose is better , i can change my units of insulin for even 0,1 so it’s 10000000 times better. Thats just my advice , hope it helps.
