Story
When Taylor was just 2 years old he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, a condition which requires the injection of insulin to keep his body stable. Unfortunately for Taylor he has never been stable for longer than a few weeks at a time and has consequently spent many periods of time in hospital. This is due to an allergy to insulin which causes Taylors body to deteriorate. Over time various muscle from the sites of his injections have collapsed or swollen and doctors have yet to find out why.

I was so touched by this story, my son was also diagnosed Type1 at 2yrs and is now 7yrs, it's such a difficult condition, I can't imagine what you're going through. Hope you can all enjoy Disney.

As a type 1 diabetic and owner of an Instagram group @dailylifewithdiabetes I cannot imagine what you must be going through. Taylor is a true inspiration to us all and deserves this amazing holiday 💖
