Getting a little serious this morning with you... many of you know I'm a type 1 diabetic (going on 26 years since diagnosis), in fact my mom also has it and so does my aunt (her sister). Growing up my mom always made me wear a medical alert bracelet or necklace (#sponsored), but as an adult, I'd gotten pretty lazy about wearing one until I had a terrifying experience while pregnant with my oldest daughter. I was out for a run and about a mile away from our house when my blood sugar dropped and I could barely stand, much less make the walk or run back home. I had to call my husband to come get me (thank God he was actually home, as normally he wasn't during the times I ran). ⠀ .⠀ Now, you should also know I'm allergic to penicillin, and while the insulin pump attached to me would maybe clue in an EMT or doctor that I was diabetic, no one would know about the penicillin if something happened to me.⠀ .⠀ So let this be your PSA that wearing a medical alert bracelet is a must if you have any sort of health condition or allergy emergency personnel taking care of you would need to know.⠀ .⠀ I'm so excited to be partnering with @americanmedicalid ❤️ They've been in business for over 20 years and provide custom engraved medical IDs. Because you know, type 1 diabetic and penicillin allergy aren't exactly the most common things to have going on together 😏 If this resonates with you and you know you (or a loved one) should be wearing one use code MILKNHONEY on their website for 10% off. I love my silver mesh bracelet. It's stylish, discreet, and life saving all in one 👍 #americanmedicalid #milknhoneynutrition #type1 #diabetes #diabetic #type1diabetes⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #vsco #handsandhustle #liveauthentic #thatsdarling #darlingmovement #flashesofdelight #livethelittlethings #nothingisordinary #thehappynow #welltravelled #visualsoflife #visualsgang #girlboss #mompreneuer #progressnotperfection #uniteinmotherhood #motherhood #smallbusiness #beautifulmess #theartofslowliving #houston #thehappynow #dietitian
