In the spirit of giving, I sent thank you cards for our troops to Military Missions, Inc. It is my hope that these cards uplift and remind our service members that their courage and selfless service are truly appreciated and never forgotten.🎄🇺🇸

Happy Friday lovelies!

It’s Tylar, your Mrs. RUU❤️

Life got busy- and I never got around to making that informational video about Cooper and Bailey. That being said- we’re expected to get 7-12 inches of snow where I live, so I’ve got time! I’ll be posting it later today or tomorrow. Cooper will be in the video with me.

Pictured is Cooper, taken today as I work with him on training while I do a permanent jewelry pop up!

Comment any questions about Type One, Service dogs, or Diabetic Alert dogs in general, and I’ll include them in the video!

Hey lovelies! Happy Friday! It’s Tylar- your Mrs. RUU!

💙November 14 is World Diabetes Day 💙
Today we shine a light on Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes—and the daily realities that often go unseen.

Important facts:
• Over 537 million people worldwide live with diabetes.
• Type 1 diabetes is autoimmune; Type 2 is often metabolic, but both are serious medical conditions.
• Insulin was discovered in 1921—and over 100 years later, it’s still not universally affordable or accessible.
• Diabetes is one of the top 10 leading causes of death globally.
• Technology helps, but doesn’t replace the daily management burden.

Awareness leads to understanding, and understanding leads to better support for those living with diabetes every single day.

💙World Diabetes Day is celebrated every year on November 14 because it’s the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, one of the scientists who discovered insulin in 1921.

Insulin is the hormone that keeps people with diabetes alive, so Banting’s discovery literally changed the course of medical history and continues to save millions of lives every day.

The day was chosen to:
💙Honor the discovery of insulin
💙Raise global awareness about diabetes
💙Advocate for better access to insulin, medical care, and education worldwide

So today isn’t just a date — it’s a reminder of how far we’ve come and how far we still need to go. 💙

This weekend I ran my first post pneumonia half marathon and my 6th half in 3 different states. My only goal was to finish without lung complications not a PR. Mission accomplished 🏅

Happy Friday lovelies! It’s Tylar, your Mrs. RUU!

To kick off the first post of Diabetes Awareness Month- I wanted to shine some light on Bailey and Cooper. Bailey is a German Shepherd mix, Cooper is a Golden-doodle. Bailey is a fully trained Diabetic Alert Dog (DAD), Bailey also is trained to provide me with Deep Pressure Therapy. Cooper is my DAD in training!

You may wonder what a DAD is..Diabetic service dogs, also called diabetic alert dogs or DADs, are trained to let their handler know when their blood sugar has spiked too high or dropped too low. Both Cooper and Bailey constantly alert to low blood sugars for me. (I unfortunately am terrible at catching Coopers with a photo😅)

Diabetic alert dogs are. trained to smell the chemical changes in your breath, saliva, and sweat that happen when your blood sugar levels shift. DADs are a great tool to have-unfortunately they are not the most cost friendly to obtain. A typical, fully trained diabetic alert dog is usually anywhere from 10,000-30,000 dollars, depending on the program, and insurance won't help cover these costs. Both Bailey and Cooper are trained by me.

While all the advancements in technology are phenomenal, sometimes, they don't catch the lows right away. I myself rely on my Dexcome G6, and Omnipod to measure my glucose levels, and deliver insulin. Sometimes the CGM doesn't notice the low right away, or will have incorrect values, saying that I'm in range, when I'm not- which can lead to life threatening scenarios. Both Bailey and Cooper also do night alerts, meaning they will wake me up in the middle of the night if they smell a low blood sugar.

I plan to post a little video tomorrow, talking more in depth about these boys, their training, and tools! so stay tuned!
