Olivia and Ella Murakami, Toronto Ontario
Olivia was three years old when she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Now she’s almost six. No kid should have to endure what she endures — day in, day out — but most of the time she accepts her management routine with patience and good humour.
Ella, age three, looks out for her big sister and helps Olivia whenever she can. Sometimes she comes to tell us, “Olivia’s low.” She’s very patient with her crazy Mom and Dad, who sometimes give her sister’s diabetes a bit too much attention.
Two Diabetes Champions, without a doubt!
