I am very sorry for your loss. Being a type 1 brittle, I know the struggles not only include the diabetic but also the family members that watch out for us. My heart aches for your family. I did not know Logan, but his smile made me read his obituary and the reason for his death made me cry. May a cure be found so other’s don’t go through what you are. My deepest condolences.
