Mumbai: Chirpy’s voice, sweet melody.
When Bhadra was 7 years old from Kerala got rid of patriotic songs in Malayalam, the ponytail hanged synchronously, a little girl who suffered from diabetes had a underlying message to the nation on the 75th Independence Day – the need for freedom from lack of awareness of childhood diabetes.
The song is part of a virtual talent show presented by 75 children from all over the country who have type 1 diabetes, showing how they live on diabetes.
Thosands of kilometers away, at Jammu, the 9-year-old Ojaswi Gupta also has the same chronic disorder for the past two years shaking the foot to traditional songs in the local Dogri dialect.
The message also aims to attract the attention of state policy makers to help improve the lives of Indian children suffer from diabetes.
In Jammu, there was a little awareness of childhood diabetes, showing Ojaswi’s mother.
The child took four shots of insulin a day and had to do his blood test at least four times every day.
People who pay attention to this, rolled litany “cures”, said Ojaswi’s mother, added that there was a little awareness of medical conditions.
Type 1 diabetes, also called teen diabetes, does not have medicine like now.
This is a chronic disorder where the pancreas failed to produce insulin, say medical experts.
A child who has type 1 diabetes must take insulin injection every day, and there is no alternative.
While the number of cases has increased over the past few decades in this country, the pandemic suddenly has triggered the incident, say those working in type 1.
Other social obstacles, showing Ms.
Ojawsi, is that people tend to hide the fact that children They suffer from diabetes.
“Not sure why they do this …
maybe they are afraid of social stigma,” he added.
The secret of confidentiality was reflected in the south too, agreed to Bhadra Vijesh TR’s father.
“While people who suffer from diabetes refuse to talk about it, there is a little awareness even in the medical brotherhood,” Vijesh said.
The state government of Kerala has launched a ‘Mithai’ project where it offers free insulin to children and children who have type 1.
Diabetes “insulin is a lifeline for people who suffer from type 1 diabetes,” Vijesh said which is President Kerala Type 1 Society Diabetes, a support group.
“Because the pandemic is no right insulin supply.” The country northeast of the country is also a similar Malady.
Nishant (17), a grade 11 student from Assam who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when he was nine years old, said there was no endocrinology (specialist) in the district of Bajali, about 100 km from Guwahati where he lived.
“Here, people don’t realize at all,” said the teenager.
At school, he was treated “very different”, remembered Nishant.
His teacher had told the class that he had a “physical weakness”, without determining what it was, he said, added, “I have never liked this at all.” Clutch problems that people in India have type 1 diabetes must be faced is what drives virtual events on independence night.
This will be directly channeled to show off the talent of children living with diabetes and to hammer the message to the nation in general he calls for the attention of our policy makers.
This event has been held jointly by awareness of diabetes and you, a national organization based in Kolkata, and Indian type 1 diabetes foundation, an umbrella organization that works for community welfare.
This is a special message on the 75th Independence Day, Note Indrajit Majumder, Secretary of Diabetes Awareness and You (Day).
“People with type 1 diabetes are ignored in our country, even our policy makers don’t seem disturbed,” said Majumder Toi.
The cost of care is not affordable for many people in our country, said Prashanth Mani, Secretary General of the Indian type 1 Diabetes Foundation.
“Many children are forced to seize their insulin doses to save costs,” said Mani.
“This is a sorry country given that insulin is the right to live a lot in our country deprived even after 75 years of independence.” Precisely small children raised their innocent voices through Song-and-Dance this independence day.
