The Sylena Childhood Diabetes Fund assists Southern Nevada families with costs not covered by insurance including lancets, needles, co-pays and medication (such as insulin).
A Case For Your Support
Children with Type1 diabetes require insulin to survive. They also require test strips, lancets, alcohol swabs, needles/syringes, and insulin pumps. These costs add up for families, especially if they have multiple children with juvenile diabetes. Many families with multiple children afflicted with Childhood Diabetes end up sharing needles and insulin to make their limited supply stretch. Some families are lucky enough to have their child be able to wear the continuous blood sugar monitor and insulin pump yet the possibility of insulin shock remains constantly life threatening; these parents are typically checking the data being sent to their devices every 15 minutes around the clock.
