P's Summer Camp came to a close and there is a week in-between camp and school so some of the parents got together to plan playdates. P and I attended the Natural History Museum playdate with her school chums Andres and Benjamin. We have been to the museum many times but today there was a special exhibit on flying dinosaurs that was especially cool. They had these interactive games that allowed the children to pretend to fly like a dinosaur. We spent a lot of time in this exhibit and then had lunch and then spent a ton of time playing in the water fountains where all three kids got completely soaked but they are kids so they didn't care.
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....
