At 20 mos Baby Girl still loves her Binky. I get crap from her teacher about her still using it but I really don't have the heart to take it away. Within the last two weeks she has learned the word "Binky" and now knows how to verbalize her need for it. She says "The Binky" and repeats it 3 times. It's very cute except when you are in the pediatrician a office waiting for your doctor, who told you to get of it at 10 mos. For an hour I had to keep her entertained without it. She mentioned it a few times and I hoped that wouldn't be the moment he walked in! Luckily, our secret is safe for now!
As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen. If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public. Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me. Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
