\"\"<\/a>April\u2019s \u201cHeart to Heart: T1D Caregiver Spotlight\u201d is on Tricia Rudd! Tricia is from Sarasota and works as a real estate professional at Keller Williams On The Water. She currently serves on our Tampa Bay Community Board of Directors as the Board Advocacy Champion and has been involved with Breakthrough T1D for many years.<\/p>\n

Tricia\u2019s daughter, Emmabella, was diagnosed with T1D in October of 2006 at the\u00a0age of five. Emmabella is now 20 years old and graduating from Florida State\u00a0University in a few weeks with\u00a0a Bachelor of Science in Public Health. She will be attending Georgetown University in the fall for her Master\u2019s in Health and the Public Interest.<\/p>\n

Since Emmabella\u2019s diagnosis, the Rudd family has been actively involved with Breakthrough T1D, whether it be fundraising for the annual One Walk, traveling to D.C. to advocate as part of Children\u2019s Congress, sponsoring the galas, and so much more. As a mom caring for their child with T1D for almost 16 years now, Tricia has overcome many obstacles along the way and is always learning the best way to help Emmabella manage her diabetes. Below you will find more information about Tricia and Emmabella, as well as some\u00a0helpful, realistic advice about being a T1D caregiver:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Throughout your child\u2019s T1D journey, what have been the biggest challenges you faced? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u201cOne of the toughest challenges throughout Emmabella’s T1D journey was managing her blood sugars while she played competitive soccer and battling low blood sugars throughout the night,\u201d says Tricia. \u201cSick day management is always challenging, but adapting to Emmabella being away at college was stressful. Her freshman year she fell so sick that we had to travel up to Tallahassee to bring her home to recover for a week.\u201d<\/p>\n

When someone with T1D gets sick, it can be very scary. Since being sick can pose a serious risk for people with T1D, it\u2019s critical to have a plan of action in place. Click here<\/a> for some helpful tips from Breakthrough T1D on how to best care for your T1D when they fall ill, whether it be a mild cold or a flu bug.<\/p>\n

While adjusting to life with a child with type 1 diabetes, are there certain things you found that helped you better manage their disease? What about something that helped give <\/em><\/strong>you hope when you were just getting started?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u201cWhen Emmabella was first diagnosed in 2006, continuous glucose monitors did not exist. It was only a few short years later when she began wearing this amazing medical technology that changed our lives,\u201d explains Tricia. \u201cIn the last 15 years, the medical advancements have improved her quality of life.\u201d<\/p>\n

What skills\/lessons has raising a T1D child taught you? For a parent of a newly diagnosed T1D, how would you compare those feelings to now?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tricia explains that caring for a child with T1D has taught her to not sweat the small stuff. When you are suddenly faced with a child suffering with a chronic illness, Tricia believes it makes you realize what is important in life. \u201cWithout your health and family, you have nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Can you touch on why it\u2019s important for T1D mothers and caregivers to come together?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>\u201cCaring for a T1D child can be extremely lonely and isolating if you don\u2019t have someone to talk to that understands first-hand what you are going through. It is essential to rely on this community for advice, resources, and support. Being part of a support group is so important because it makes you realize that you are not alone. By collectively sharing our stories, we can learn so much from each other\u2019s experiences,\u201d says Tricia.<\/p>\n

Breakthrough T1D has many support groups for those living with T1D and their caregivers \u2013 for more information, visit\u00a0jdrf.org\/t1d-resources\/personal-support\/<\/strong><\/a>. If you\u2019re looking for local support in the Northern Florida area, send an email to\u00a0northernflorida@BreakthroughT1D.org<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and we will make sure you get connected with other families, support groups, and events we host throughout the year.<\/p>\n

What has Breakthrough T1D meant to\/done for your family? (involvement, connection to <\/em><\/strong>community, participation in events, etc.)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cA few weeks after Emmabella was diagnosed, we were introduced to Breakthrough T1D, which changed our perspective on her diagnosis and gave us hope. It truly gave us motivation to do everything in our power to find a cure for her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Fundraising has been a large part of the Rudd family\u2019s involvement through their \u201cEmmabella\u2019s Believers\u201d walk team. However, their passion evolved with Breakthrough T1D Advocacy, when they began meeting with legislators to discuss the importance of federal funding for T1D \u2013 that is where Emmabella found her passion for public health advocacy and health policy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>To this day, Emmabella has raised more than $350,000 for diabetes research and has educated thousands of students through her advocacy work. She has also written her own legislation in the State of Florida and is currently working towards lowering insulin prices on both the Federal and State levels.<\/p>\n

Through Breakthrough T1D Advocacy, you can use your voice to help secure continued Federal funding for important diabetes research, inform health and regulatory policy, and improve the quality of life for those affected by T1D \u2013 until we find a cure. To learn more about how you can get involved, visit jdrf.org\/impact\/advocacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What is the most important thing you would want other parents of children with T1D to know? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the most important things as a parent of a T1D is to advocate for your child,\u201d says Tricia. \u201cT1D is often misunderstood, and it is our responsibility as parents to educate others about the seriousness of this disease.”<\/p>\n

A True T1D Champion<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>We believe that because of parents and caregivers like Tricia, the children living with T1D in our community are given the support and care they need to succeed in life and in managing their disease. To anyone caring for a child with T1D, please know that you are not alone in the sleepless nights and heavy days. Breakthrough T1D Northern Florida is here to help you and can connect you with a network of other T1D caregivers to share advice, struggles, and words of encouragement.<\/p>\n
