Glucose Shot for Child with Type 1

Location: Minneapolis

Category: Babies, Health, Shelter

Story

Marjorie is newly fostering her three growing grandkids, one of the children has type 1 diabetes. This means glucose shots and extra supplies are part of their daily routine. On top of that, laundry piles up faster than she can keep up, and essentials like detergent items are running low.

Right now, Marjorie is stretched thin trying to juggle the cost of medical supplies, laundry needs, and everyday bills. With a little help, she can make sure her grandkids have what they need—and that her home remains a safe, steady place where they can thrive.

While all children grow at their own pace, some children experience delays in development. Special health conditions may also affect development. Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) offers information, support and referral services to help at no cost to families. ECSE programs provide supports and services to infants, toddlers, and preschool children with a delay or disability and their families.
