  • My 8 year old was diagnosed a week ago. Your video made him smile. Thank you!

  • @MrSmbiz Good luck.

  • I assume that it wasn't his first time? I may have to inject soon to control my diabetes. It's sub cutaneous inection, yes? Not intra muscular? I hope i can do it,,,,never mind other kids. I'm phobic about needles. Putting off seeing an endocrinologist...A bit in denial...

  • @hoss1962 Yes, not a muscular injection. Pretty simple to administer, and relatively painless.

  • Thank you. Julia, who is 5, is no longer afraid. You made a tremedous difference!

  • Hey I do not have diabetes but your video really is a generous way to help all the kids that have the same problem, and not only the kids.

    Well done Kiddo!

  • Great Job!!!!

  • What a brave boy! Gestational diabetic myself and those shots are hard to take. Thanks for sharing.

  • Sweet brave boy.

  • This 8 year old kid can do it all by himself but my aunt has to get my cousin to inject her. WOW!

  • Yikes the white coat fobia all over again. Needles are bad news wish their was a better way such as a pill or monthly shot.

  • how does he do that i am totally scarred of injections lol i feel so sorry for him
