Watching this video as someone with t1d has really made me feel less alone and as though I belong to a community, and it inspires me that there are other people in the same situation, so thank you :)
There are always others, mate. You are never alone in this fight. There are many of us who aren't in your situation yet are still with you. It is never a reason you should feel alone.
My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ruclips.net/user/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
Hi, there! Noticed your comment on not knowing why your son got T1D. I used to be confused how I was the only one of my nine siblings with type one. Then I began learning how autoimmunity is on a spectrum, even though we don't normally hear it talked about that way. I have siblings with environmental allergies, lupus, vitiligo, PCOS and sensitivity to wheat or milk casein; believe it or not, diabetes fits in really naturally with all of these! I must have hit some kind of cascade that triggered my system to attack - and it picked my pancreas... but, it could have been a different organ or system. It could have looked totally different, yet still been related to the some of the same root causes. I do have previous generations of my family (from cousins to aunts and uncles, even back to a great-grandfather who died of it, I believe), who all ended up with diabetes specifically. Genetics is one piece, just not the only one. Some of my best learning about root causes has come from the book The Devil in the Milk, and the online video-summit (I ended up buying the series on DVD) called The Autoimmunity Summit.
So you guys are hitting on her when she is having a critical disorder. Mate why would you say that I am so disappointed! Samantha it okay it will be OK don't worry there is people supporting you. So don't be 😔 goodluck
@@veluta2549 it definitely has something to do with the person SOMETIMES. bc most people can be born with it… either from their parents, or genetics. and then other times, it depends on how much sugar u eat.
My 11yr old daughter was just diagnosed. She’s having a hard time adjusting but seeing you have it too made her feel normal. She loves “Sam” from cobra Kai and also has brown hair and blue eyes. Thank you for sharing your story and making a little girls day.
Donna Flynn Do you know the feeling of everyone hating you because of the color of your skin??? For years I was told by a neglectful pediatrician that he doesn't believe in T1D and then he said if you say T1D again I will put her in the hospital with shunts in her head. This is because of me being around many schizophrenics. I was around schizophrenic children and schizophrenic adults. If you do not know schizophrenia is were someone hears voices in their head.
Donna Flynn Never never ever read a book titled Change The Game. When I was 9 years old my family had moved from one side of Springfield Missouri to another and I was starting at a new school and I was 9 years old and going into a classroom of 21 other students who were completely healthy was terrifying. My third grade year was ok and my fourth grade year I ended up in the hospital having so many brain surgeries it was truly truly insane. Also I was medically abused by Jehovah's Witnesses and so I will sue every Jehovah's Witness religion in the world. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 What is even worse was when I was 10 years old my mother took me to the hospital to have brain surgery and I was raped.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 My fifth grade year turned into fucking hell. I got switched from one classroom to another because of being severely bullied. From October 2005 to December 2005 I was in the hospital having several brain surgeries again. When I came back to the school I was laughed at and made to crawl on the ground like a baby and not educated at all. Yeah I'm I was not given an education for 3 years of my life because of stupid ass Jehovah's Witnesses and I also went to school with another child and she was around my age. She also had childhood schizophrenia and she was also the reason I got kicked out of a church.
Thank you for sharing this story! I dont have diabetes, but I have hashimotos and to hear you be so open and see your success regardless of sickness inspires me. :)
I also have Hashimotos as well as type 1 and I completely agree. Before I was diagnosed with type 1 I just had hashimotos and i would watch videos like this and it moved me. haha look where I am now.
The cake story really got me. Having to mature being conscious about food at such a young age while I know so many adults that would just swallow the whole thing even though they have D or are at risk. Now I know that you are stronger than all the characters portrayed in the series put together. Lady, my respects to you.
That's always the part that never fails to make me tear up SOOO bad. I don't cry much and I don't really like doing so (which is very bad, by the way), but that just hit so hard. For a kid, food especially their favorite ones are like life, imagine that being torn away from you because of something you didn't even ask for. The journey's been hard just from this story and trying to imagine how it might've been was for years breaks my heart so much. Mary, we're always proud of you.
My friend has type 2 diabetes but he first had at type 1. He came to day one of my school and everyone was scared of him because he had the needle and he had to watch his food too. He cried when he couldn’t eat a banana because of his blood sugar. I showed him this video and he feels better because of you. Now I have an awesome friend because of you, thank you so much
As a type 1 diabetic for over 12 years you summarized my whole life in just 21 minutes. I love seeing people relate to me and deal with the same things I deal on a day to day basis and not feel alone in the world. Thank you Mary!
When you cried I cried too, is really heartbreaking to see how people suffer with diabetes, I wish all of you the best, ik is really hard because my grandpa has diabetes too, but try to achieve all your goals, and I wish you a Happy New Year!❤💕❤💖❤💓💕💓❤💖💖💕💓💖❤💓💖💕❤💖💕❤Ily
I don’t have diabetes, I clicked on this video specially to get to know more about it. I really loved the way you explained how it is and your experience with it. It’s good to know that years later you’re doing so much better and doing things you love :D
She’s such a sweet person. It’s good what you’re doing. I have some good friends with diabetes and I’m a nurse practitioner and it’s good for people to hear someone they look up to or see on television to open up about real life struggles and show their human side. I for one appreciate it
It’s crazy how your story is so similar to mine. I am 16 and I was diagnosed when I was 5. My blood sugar was around 625 and I was also in the intensive care unit. I also had dehydration and even drank water from the sink. I can’t remember my life before I was diagnosed since I was so young, so I wouldn’t know the scary feeling of your life changing forever
@@josku5 Like I said, I was 5 years old so I can’t really remember. My mom said that my sugar level was 625. I was diagnosed in Barcelona, Spain so I’m not sure how they measure things over there.
I was diagnosed when i was one with t1d, i constantly had seizures so my parents took me to the hospital and checked my blood sugar and it was 1000, i should have been dead....
@@connorgalloway2673 damn man that sucks. I'm actually kinda good with this whole thing. Like I'm not really too butthurt about the whole thing. My grandma has diabetes too. And she hasn't done anything for the past 30 years other then just sit at home and do nothing.
@@dripgotthatdrip yeah man it can effect people in a variety of ways. I’m just blessed and grateful for accessibility to insulin and Dexcom. I hope all of that is well with you. God bless
I have an aunt who has type 1 diabetes and it’s crazy because she pretty much just lives her life like she doesn’t even have it. I also never knew that you and everyone with type 1 diabetes had to go through all of this crazy stuff everyday. Stay safe and keep up the good work
I was diagnosed twenty five years late because of a neighbor that I had she was a schizophrenic from fucking hell. My step brother Jacob is a Schizophrenic from hell as well. Anyway I grew up in Springfield Missouri and I was born at 24 weeks early. No one was nice to me growing up and around age 10 I met a girl the same age as me and she was a schizophrenic from hell. She got me kicked out of church and she constantly lied all the time. She told everyone when I was 11 years old and in fifth grade that I was an animal Ashley Wells brought back to life. I went to church when I was younger and she told everyone at the church that I went to that I was going to die because I was mixed with black and white. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I was kicked out of a elementary school because of her lies and I believe I got kicked out of a middle school and highschool as well. When I was 10 years old I met a 5 year old and when this girl was around age 8 or 9 or maybe she might have been a little bit older, she walked all the way to Albuquerque New Mexico on foot and convinced Gabrielle Montez to pose as a fucking doctor. Don't ever play Change The Game. Don't ever read the book either. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 So I was actually born with T1D but I never received anything because stupid ass schizophrenics saying I deserved to die. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 The story gets worse from here everyone seemed to really really hate me because I am mixed and my stupid ass step brother Jacob told the doctors not to give me anything because I was mixed. I spent several years in the hospital have unnecessary brain surgeries. Do not ever read a book titled change the game........ the fucking book ruins lives. I had a neighbor who was a schizophrenic and she told lies all the fucking time like I was going to die because of the color of my skin. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes almost 2 months ago now, I’m 20 years old and I can’t explain how hard it gets sometimes, you’re one of my favourite actors in cobra kai and my respect for you has gone up even more. You’re a strong woman and an incredible influence, it makes me feel less alone knowing there is someone with the same condition as me and understanding it. Thank you Mary🖤
Update: I’m doing better, I met Mary last November at comic con and she is the nicest sweetest person I’ve ever met and I got to speak to her for a few mins and said I had type 1 diabetes too and that she is an inspiration of mine and she reassured me and told me it will get better, I’m just so thankful for her and my experience I got to share with her
I am a mom with a teenager with T1D diagnosed ten years ago too. She's a bright and wonderful young lady who is doing well with her diabetes. But even as such, it is so nice to have you be such a positive inspiration and to hear your story and positive outlook. When you mentioned your mom getting up and checking you every few hours in the night, I thought "yep" that's me too. And I will continue to get up multiple times every night for as long as I can because I really believe that no long should go through this journey alone. Stay healthy and wonderful, Mary.
Stop making me cry! This is the most inspirational video I've ever seen in years. Well, i have diabetes and guess what, my twin sister also has. We are so greatful for having each other's back and she is the most important person in my life 🤷♀️
Glad to see you've handled your type 1 so well. It is an inspiration to everyone dealing with diabetes, and also shows your determination to push yourself. You are doing so well on the Cobra Kai series, looking forward to seeing you continue your great performances!!!
I have had Type one Diabetes sense I was 2 years old and man... I’m so thankful that God has blessed me with Diabetes, and not Cancer or something else that’s could be way more scary then Diabetes. But it’s super scary waking up every day knowing you could pass out and never get back up. I know that if God has given me this challenge in life then he knows that I can be as strong as I can think of.
I'm a T1 myself, so I know how hard the disease is to manage and the emotional strain it can take on you. I had all of these symptoms, almost passed out at my aunt and uncle's wedding before my diagnosis, and a lot of the same hospital experiences 8 years ago. You're amazing, beautiful, talented, and super strong. Love you queen, keep being you 👑💕
You've been through a lot and never gave up, the fact you're an actress in Cobra Kai with Type 1 Diabetes is very impressive, keep strong and best wishes go out to you. Biggest Fan!
My son was diagnosed last year at the age of 9. It has been very difficult on me as a father, but he has been such a champion and I am so proud of him. Thank you for being so open about it and sharing your experience.
This puts a smile on my face 😊 I went through almost the exact situation, and I’m so glad there is a community that knows this struggle and can be there.
My brother was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of eighteen. It was hard at first but he learned to live a normal life. That is why I understand you well and I give you a lot of encouragement and to continue well, a hug and congratulations for the channel and for the cobra Kai series which is my favorite.
Your an inspiration Miss Mary Mouser l sent this video to my Son he was diagnosed with Early Childhood Seizure Disorder at 11 he's 19 now & still suffers from seizures but only need 1 medication to control it. I want him to watch your video so he can see that if you take control of your disorder you can still be successful with your life & reach every goal imaginable with dedication & hard work.
Michael Mayer Hey Michael would you think I was lying if I said I was actually born with T1D?? Well I was born with Type 1 Diabetes and I had a brain hemorrhage and a stroke because my mother was never given anything. I spent the last 25 years in DKA and the bed wetting was so severe that I almost lost my kidneys at age 17. All the doctors didn't like me when I was a child and another thing a stupid ass pediatrician told my mom if you say T1D again I will put her in the hospital with shunts in her head and he also said I had to play something called Change The game when I am older. I was born at 24 weeks early and I have a long history of disabilities because of it. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Well I played Change The Game and I actually got 10 to 12 genetic diseases on top of a long history of disabilities. 10 to 12 genetic diseases on top of a long history of disabilities is not a good thing. I spent many many many months in the hospital and the real problem was not taken care of at all.
Mary such a touching real story. I was diagnosed with diabetes type 2 when I was 40. I remember crying when I found out. (My blood sugar was over 600). I am now 66 and have lived 26 years with the illness that killed my grandfather and grand mother on both sides of my family. I remember the strokes and the amputations they went through and the thought of that for me was devastating. Unfortunately the lock down has kept me away from my doctor for over a year and I stopped testing when I ran out of supplies. When I went back to the doctor about 2 months ago my A1C was over 13. Thank god I have worked hard and now I average around 130 which is a big improvement. Thank you for your story and I wish you the best in your career and life. Rick
I know it may sound like im exaggerating but this is honestly one of my favorite youtuber videos on RUclips, its so educational on such a sensitive subject and i applaud you mary for your courage to come out and talked about your battle with diabetes. My mom have diabetes so i seen up close and personal just how it can effect a person's life not just physically but mentally aswell so thank you for taking the time to address your battle with diabetes i know its not easy so i truly appreciate your courage and continues to root for you.😊👍❤
hearing how similar your diagnosis story is to mine had me in tears. I remember how scared I felt throughout the whole process. Thank you for sharing your story!
I can’t possibly imagine what it is like to have diabetes and I’m so sorry that you have had to go through everything you went through. But you have inspired so many people and it’s just amazing what you do to inspire people just with your acting as well. I have 10 siblings with 4 special needs so maybe that can rate up to having a tough life but you will always be in our thoughts and hearts Mary. Keep going and never give up, your such a strong person and we can all take a lesson from you!!!
Seeing this made me wanna hug you Mary, even though it’s been quite sometime since you posted this video, but being able to open up about something like that is a huge step, I’m proud of you 🙌
I have type 1 diabetes and its really nice to know that there are people like me in the world that still live like that, this makes me feel better to know that im not alone💕 Thanks 💕

Mary stay strong and keep sharing. I have a friend who has diabetes. You are a voice for all those that share this. Thank you for sharing and being so awesome. My wife and I LOVE the show Cobra Kai. We will be praying for you and I know God has His arms wrapped around you. #miyagido #cobrakai
You and I are less than a month apart in age, I was diagnosed T1D less than a year before you were so in a few ways we’ve shared a very similar journey! I come back to your diabetes vlogs often for some reassurance and to hear the experiences someone else just like me has been through. My 3 y/o daughter has just been diagnosed T1D as well so I’ll be showing her your channel when she’s old enough to comprehend everything too. You’re an inspiration 🙌🏻❤️
When I was 8 eight years old I found I had Mody 3 diabetes. Which is a genetic type. It was something I was born with and was something my mother was scared of . This type of diabetes has ran down in my moms side of my family. My brother has it , mom has it , and then my grandfather has a different type of diabetes I think but he also has it, my great grandmother has it to. It’s ran down in my family and if I have children it’s likely they will have it. It sucks but it’s something I have to live with and same with m family. I’m 13 now and I’m used to it but sometimes I wonder what it would be like if i didn’t have it.
I have type 1 diabetes since 2005 and it had changed my life ever since but never give up the fight we the people with diabetes in general tht we're all in this together and never give up no matter what❤
My son was diagnosed at 4 1/2, this June will be 5 years. Your story is moving. Thank you for being an inspiration and champion for all T1D warriors. Oh and go team Miyagi do!!!
Everything you talked about I really relate to. The relationship with food and not being able to just eat food and go on, having to do the process of testing and taking insulin. I was diagnosed the day before Thanksgiving 4 years ago. I completely understand, thank you for this video!
Thank you for sharing your inspiring story! I can empathize with you so much. I don't have diabetes, but I do have other health issues that put me through a lot of the same/similar situations. Hearing your story has given me some hope for my future and not to let my health control my life.
This video made me cry Mary! It made me think of my sister who has Type 1 Diabetes and how scared my mom was and how little we knew at first about diabetes... and how manageable it can be, thank you for sharing your story!!!
Aww Sorry To Hear About The Rough Journey, My Grandmother has diabetes but still living, You're An Absolutely Amazing Actress and Person and God Bless You! ❤️
Thanks for sharing. I was diagnosed at 23. I just got on with a Fire Department and I had to take a medical exam. Found out and I was dropped for medical from the Fire Academy. I pushed through and became a Paramedic. I'm on insulin. If anyone is on it or about to go on it, know you can gain a lot of muscle and athletic endurance on it. I weight lift, snowboard, surf and go hiking. I am 42. I'm studying to be a Surgical Assistant on a Trauma Team. Keep pushing past adversity. Diabetes is not a death sentence.
Omg I didn’t know she was a Type 1 Diabetic. I’ve been Type 1 for 12 years now. It gets easier, but it is still something you have to keep in the back of your mind. Thank you for showing that I’m not alone. There are many of us out there and we are in this together! Please stay safe Mary!❤️
Both our kids are T1D, our son was dx at age 4, he’s now 18, our daughter was dx at 11.5 she’s now 14. Thank you for this video, I’m showing our girl, she’s really going through a tough time. Thank you.
I don't have any chronic deceases but I could understand the emotions in your voice and I literally cried and will pray for you and God bless you and you will recover soon
This is insane this is a eye opener for me to understand and process what my friend went through and I am really happy I was there to help always calling and making him smile
Hey I also have t1d I got it when I was 8 now I am 11 almost 12 years old. My story is like yours I found I had it after my 8th birthday and I lost a lot of weight and it felt as if I didn’t have veins I just really happy to know they is people like me 🙃💜
Loved your story and my daughter was excited to hear you had type 1 and killing it as an actress. We watched together and she laughed at me as tears welled up in my eyes. We have a local support group and it would be awesome if we could get you to maybe talk to the kids and tell them that it doesn’t define your ability to follow your dreams.
My husband was diagnosed with type 1 shortly after we were married, at age 25 (also 10 years ago!) We didn't realize what was going on because it's often called juvenile diabetes, and he was an adult. So if you, or someone you know is showing symptoms, get tested, even if you are in your twenties. Thank you for your story Mary, and for raising awareness. You are killing it on Cobra Kai, and showing what it means to be a badass diabetic! 👊💥❤
When you were talking about the isolation of being a Type 1. I can soo relate. Thank you for this. You really have inspired me as a young woman. All the best. ❤️
When you talked about frequent urination and dehydration, it reminded me of what my mom said her symptoms were before being diagnosed with t1 diabetes. Both my younger brothers also had a lot of these symptoms before being diagnosed. It’s so amazing to hear about how you overcame your struggles! 💜
Hey it’s been about 7 months of me having t1d and I just came across your video and it was very inspiring to hear your story. It helped me notice that I am in a sister/brother hood of t1ds and it is helping me get through all this. Keep it up and stay positive!👍🏼🥰
Thank you so much for your amazing story Mary. My daughter was recently diagnosed, July 17, 2020 at 9 years old. So much of what you said truly hits home & is also so very inspiring! My daughter amazes me/us everyday. She is just so strong thru it all and handles everything so well. Thank you for shining thru & being a bright light! T1D Warriors! 💙💙💙
Mary, I just saw this yesterday. I didn't know all you went through. I admire you by your amazing job at Cobra Kai, I cannot think of a different Sam. But now I am so impressed that you overcame and adjusted before and after diagnosis. As you said, you have accomplished more than you would have thought, and I know you will keep going up. You are a real warrior!! Thank you for sharing this!
I'm an artist and I am Diabetes Type 1 since I was two and a half years old. Now I'm 32. you were lucky enough to have an insulin pump pretty early, I had to go for injections as a child, then I switched to the insulin pen and finally when I was about 20, I got a pump. Thank you for sharing this large and private part of your life. I wish you a good career and a happy life. :)
you are amazing dont know what i would do without a pump i have tht opportunity to take it off for a few weeks as a break but you are so tough and brave .
@@suhisyahin6935 IKR, seeing that made me so angry. It seems people are just throwing around the word simp without knowing what it actually means. It angers me to no end
Mary, just know your not alone on this.I am type 2 but my wife is type 1 and she is on the pump. And it really helps out But listening to you it is like a whole new education learning something new is what I like doin.Keep up doing awsome job on yours and keep us up to date on your diabetes to.
Watching this video as someone with t1d has really made me feel less alone and as though I belong to a community, and it inspires me that there are other people in the same situation, so thank you :)
There are always others, mate. You are never alone in this fight. There are many of us who aren't in your situation yet are still with you. It is never a reason you should feel alone.
Stay strong ❤️❤️❤️

My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ruclips.net/user/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital.

Hi, there! Noticed your comment on not knowing why your son got T1D. I used to be confused how I was the only one of my nine siblings with type one. Then I began learning how autoimmunity is on a spectrum, even though we don't normally hear it talked about that way. I have siblings with environmental allergies, lupus, vitiligo, PCOS and sensitivity to wheat or milk casein; believe it or not, diabetes fits in really naturally with all of these! I must have hit some kind of cascade that triggered my system to attack - and it picked my pancreas... but, it could have been a different organ or system. It could have looked totally different, yet still been related to the some of the same root causes. I do have previous generations of my family (from cousins to aunts and uncles, even back to a great-grandfather who died of it, I believe), who all ended up with diabetes specifically. Genetics is one piece, just not the only one. Some of my best learning about root causes has come from the book The Devil in the Milk, and the online video-summit (I ended up buying the series on DVD) called The Autoimmunity Summit.

what? i thought t1 was something you was born with.
@@veluta2549 no, anyone can get t1, anytime.
@@madison1165 that sucks. The worst part is it’s not even your fault, it’s a part of the auto immune reaction.
@@veluta2549 it definitely has something to do with the person SOMETIMES. bc most people can be born with it… either from their parents, or genetics. and then other times, it depends on how much sugar u eat.
My 11yr old daughter was just diagnosed. She’s having a hard time adjusting but seeing you have it too made her feel normal. She loves “Sam” from cobra Kai and also has brown hair and blue eyes. Thank you for sharing your story and making a little girls day.

Do you know the feeling of everyone hating you because of the color of your skin??? For years I was told by a neglectful pediatrician that he doesn't believe in T1D and then he said if you say T1D again I will put her in the hospital with shunts in her head. This is because of me being around many schizophrenics. I was around schizophrenic children and schizophrenic adults. If you do not know schizophrenia is were someone hears voices in their head.

Never never ever read a book titled Change The Game. When I was 9 years old my family had moved from one side of Springfield Missouri to another and I was starting at a new school and I was 9 years old and going into a classroom of 21 other students who were completely healthy was terrifying. My third grade year was ok and my fourth grade year I ended up in the hospital having so many brain surgeries it was truly truly insane. Also I was medically abused by Jehovah's Witnesses and so I will sue every Jehovah's Witness religion in the world.

My fifth grade year turned into fucking hell. I got switched from one classroom to another because of being severely bullied. From October 2005 to December 2005 I was in the hospital having several brain surgeries again. When I came back to the school I was laughed at and made to crawl on the ground like a baby and not educated at all. Yeah I'm I was not given an education for 3 years of my life because of stupid ass Jehovah's Witnesses and I also went to school with another child and she was around my age. She also had childhood schizophrenia and she was also the reason I got kicked out of a church.

Seeing mary cry is heart breaking 🥺
Right omg 🥺🥺
When she cry
Oh nvm I see it

Dunno if this is a good analogy but I tried
Thank you for sharing this story! I dont have diabetes, but I have hashimotos and to hear you be so open and see your success regardless of sickness inspires me. :)
I also have Hashimotos as well as type 1 and I completely agree. Before I was diagnosed with type 1 I just had hashimotos and i would watch videos like this and it moved me. haha look where I am now.
wasn't expecting the second top comment to be someone that also has Hashimotos, because same!
I am 12 years old and I also have type one diet beeties
I like codra kai

The cake story really got me. Having to mature being conscious about food at such a young age while I know so many adults that would just swallow the whole thing even though they have D or are at risk. Now I know that you are stronger than all the characters portrayed in the series put together. Lady, my respects to you.
That's always the part that never fails to make me tear up SOOO bad. I don't cry much and I don't really like doing so (which is very bad, by the way), but that just hit so hard. For a kid, food especially their favorite ones are like life, imagine that being torn away from you because of something you didn't even ask for. The journey's been hard just from this story and trying to imagine how it might've been was for years breaks my heart so much. Mary, we're always proud of you.
U flipped the script hawk style coz now your a badass karate student of miyagi do karate.Keep strong
An amazing actress and she seems like she has such a big heart.
She deserves success at its best. 😀
My friend has type 2 diabetes but he first had at type 1. He came to day one of my school and everyone was scared of him because he had the needle and he had to watch his food too. He cried when he couldn’t eat a banana because of his blood sugar. I showed him this video and he feels better because of you. Now I have an awesome friend because of you, thank you so much
Cameron Rangan how did he change I thought type 1 wasn’t changeable
GamerGodPlays it was a stupid typo I meant his sister lmao
Cameron Rangan oooh ok
Listening to your story has made me realize how little I really know about diabetes. You're a survivor and a badass 💙
As a type 1 diabetic for over 12 years you summarized my whole life in just 21 minutes. I love seeing people relate to me and deal with the same things I deal on a day to day basis and not feel alone in the world. Thank you Mary!
When her dexcom went off I instantly checked my pdm
U summed it up nicely. Ever since I was 6 I’ve been a T1D (18 years now) and I’ve always struggled to explain what it’s like having type one diabetes
When you cried I cried too, is really heartbreaking to see how people suffer with diabetes, I wish all of you the best, ik is really hard because my grandpa has diabetes too, but try to achieve all your goals, and I wish you a Happy New Year!❤💕❤💖❤💓💕💓❤💖💖💕💓💖❤💓💖💕❤💖💕❤Ily

I don’t have diabetes, I clicked on this video specially to get to know more about it. I really loved the way you explained how it is and your experience with it. It’s good to know that years later you’re doing so much better and doing things you love :D
She’s such a sweet person. It’s good what you’re doing. I have some good friends with diabetes and I’m a nurse practitioner and it’s good for people to hear someone they look up to or see on television to open up about real life struggles and show their human side. I for one appreciate it
It’s crazy how your story is so similar to mine. I am 16 and I was diagnosed when I was 5. My blood sugar was around 625 and I was also in the intensive care unit. I also had dehydration and even drank water from the sink. I can’t remember my life before I was diagnosed since I was so young, so I wouldn’t know the scary feeling of your life changing forever
625 of what measutement? Surely not mmol/liter? You’d be dead if that’s what your talking about.
@@josku5 Like I said, I was 5 years old so I can’t really remember. My mom said that my sugar level was 625. I was diagnosed in Barcelona, Spain so I’m not sure how they measure things over there.
I was diagnosed when i was one with t1d, i constantly had seizures so my parents took me to the hospital and checked my blood sugar and it was 1000, i should have been dead....
Well youre not. Which is good. God bless you 😁
This really opens my eyes on diabetes because I never really thought about it and its just this whole new respect for ppl with diabetes. So thank you
I’m a type on diabetic I have had it for 5 years your not alone and I am a huge fan keep doing you and keep being the best you !!💕

I got diagnosed with type 1 diabetes this October. I watch cobra kai. And this video is in my recommendations. So this feels calming

My ten year diaversary is coming up! We almost share the same date. 😭❤️(Diagnosed July 6, 2009)
awwww
I was diagnosed twenty five years late because of a neighbor that I had she was a schizophrenic from fucking hell. My step brother Jacob is a Schizophrenic from hell as well. Anyway I grew up in Springfield Missouri and I was born at 24 weeks early.
No one was nice to me growing up and around age 10 I met a girl the same age as me and she was a schizophrenic from hell. She got me kicked out of church and she constantly lied all the time. She told everyone when I was 11 years old and in fifth grade that I was an animal Ashley Wells brought back to life. I went to church when I was younger and she told everyone at the church that I went to that I was going to die because I was mixed with black and white.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I was kicked out of a elementary school because of her lies and I believe I got kicked out of a middle school and highschool as well. When I was 10 years old I met a 5 year old and when this girl was around age 8 or 9 or maybe she might have been a little bit older, she walked all the way to Albuquerque New Mexico on foot and convinced Gabrielle Montez to pose as a fucking doctor. Don't ever play Change The Game. Don't ever read the book either.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
So I was actually born with T1D but I never received anything because stupid ass schizophrenics saying I deserved to die.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The story gets worse from here everyone seemed to really really hate me because I am mixed and my stupid ass step brother Jacob told the doctors not to give me anything because I was mixed. I spent several years in the hospital have unnecessary brain surgeries. Do not ever read a book titled change the game........ the fucking book ruins lives. I had a neighbor who was a schizophrenic and she told lies all the fucking time like I was going to die because of the color of my skin.

You’re a strong woman and an incredible influence, it makes me feel less alone knowing there is someone with the same condition as me and understanding it. Thank you Mary🖤

Update: I’m doing better, I met Mary last November at comic con and she is the nicest sweetest person I’ve ever met and I got to speak to her for a few mins and said I had type 1 diabetes too and that she is an inspiration of mine and she reassured me and told me it will get better, I’m just so thankful for her and my experience I got to share with her
so inspiring, my daughter is 14 she got diagnosed last year with the same exact symptoms she went to the emergency room and her sugar was 600

@Pedro Camara Silva dude this is about diabetes dude like shes talking about her life but it sucks when noone listens is to her it makes her sad.
I am a mom with a teenager with T1D diagnosed ten years ago too. She's a bright and wonderful young lady who is doing well with her diabetes. But even as such, it is so nice to have you be such a positive inspiration and to hear your story and positive outlook. When you mentioned your mom getting up and checking you every few hours in the night, I thought "yep" that's me too. And I will continue to get up multiple times every night for as long as I can because I really believe that no long should go through this journey alone. Stay healthy and wonderful, Mary.
You are awesome! No wonder you're so good at portraying a fighter, you've gone through much worse and already come out a winner! Aloha!
Stop making me cry! This is the most inspirational video I've ever seen in years.
Well, i have diabetes and guess what, my twin sister also has. We are so greatful for having each other's back and she is the most important person in my life 🤷♀️
Glad to see you've handled your type 1 so well. It is an inspiration to everyone dealing with diabetes, and also shows your determination to push yourself. You are doing so well on the Cobra Kai series, looking forward to seeing you continue your great performances!!!
I have had Type one Diabetes sense I was 2 years old and man... I’m so thankful that God has blessed me with Diabetes, and not Cancer or something else that’s could be way more scary then Diabetes. But it’s super scary waking up every day knowing you could pass out and never get back up. I know that if God has given me this challenge in life then he knows that I can be as strong as I can think of.
God is fake and a homosexual man....
I heard....
Positive thinking 👌
Thank you for sharing this story. As a t1D this makes me feel so much more loved.
I'm a T1 myself, so I know how hard the disease is to manage and the emotional strain it can take on you. I had all of these symptoms, almost passed out at my aunt and uncle's wedding before my diagnosis, and a lot of the same hospital experiences 8 years ago. You're amazing, beautiful, talented, and super strong. Love you queen, keep being you 👑💕

Michael Mayer
Hey Michael would you think I was lying if I said I was actually born with T1D?? Well I was born with Type 1 Diabetes and I had a brain hemorrhage and a stroke because my mother was never given anything. I spent the last 25 years in DKA and the bed wetting was so severe that I almost lost my kidneys at age 17. All the doctors didn't like me when I was a child and another thing a stupid ass pediatrician told my mom if you say T1D again I will put her in the hospital with shunts in her head and he also said I had to play something called Change The game when I am older. I was born at 24 weeks early and I have a long history of disabilities because of it.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Well I played Change The Game and I actually got 10 to 12 genetic diseases on top of a long history of disabilities.
10 to 12 genetic diseases on top of a long history of disabilities is not a good thing. I spent many many many months in the hospital and the real problem was not taken care of at all.
Mary such a touching real story. I was diagnosed with diabetes type 2 when I was 40. I remember crying when I found out. (My blood sugar was over 600). I am now 66 and have lived 26 years with the illness that killed my grandfather and grand mother on both sides of my family. I remember the strokes and the amputations they went through and the thought of that for me was devastating.
Unfortunately the lock down has kept me away from my doctor for over a year and I stopped testing when I ran out of supplies. When I went back to the doctor about 2 months ago my A1C was over 13. Thank god I have worked hard and now I average around 130 which is a big improvement.
Thank you for your story and I wish you the best in your career and life.

I know it may sound like im exaggerating but this is honestly one of my favorite youtuber videos on RUclips, its so educational on such a sensitive subject and i applaud you mary for your courage to come out and talked about your battle with diabetes. My mom have diabetes so i seen up close and personal just how it can effect a person's life not just physically but mentally aswell so thank you for taking the time to address your battle with diabetes i know its not easy so i truly appreciate your courage and continues to root for you.😊👍❤
hearing how similar your diagnosis story is to mine had me in tears. I remember how scared I felt throughout the whole process. Thank you for sharing your story!
So relate to that feeling when you realize "your relationship with food was changed forever" :( :( :(
no she can eat anything she wants as long as she has a shot of insulin go away did u listen tk a word she said i have diabetes and its rlly offensive

I can’t possibly imagine what it is like to have diabetes and I’m so sorry that you have had to go through everything you went through. But you have inspired so many people and it’s just amazing what you do to inspire people just with your acting as well. I have 10 siblings with 4 special needs so maybe that can rate up to having a tough life but you will always be in our thoughts and hearts Mary. Keep going and never give up, your such a strong person and we can all take a lesson from you!!!

You and I are less than a month apart in age, I was diagnosed T1D less than a year before you were so in a few ways we’ve shared a very similar journey! I come back to your diabetes vlogs often for some reassurance and to hear the experiences someone else just like me has been through. My 3 y/o daughter has just been diagnosed T1D as well so I’ll be showing her your channel when she’s old enough to comprehend everything too. You’re an inspiration 🙌🏻❤️
When I was 8 eight years old I found I had Mody 3 diabetes. Which is a genetic type. It was something I was born with and was something my mother was scared of . This type of diabetes has ran down in my moms side of my family. My brother has it , mom has it , and then my grandfather has a different type of diabetes I think but he also has it, my great grandmother has it to. It’s ran down in my family and if I have children it’s likely they will have it. It sucks but it’s something I have to live with and same with m family. I’m 13 now and I’m used to it but sometimes I wonder what it would be like if i didn’t have it.
Stay strong Mary!!! Your supporters are going to help you through it!!!! Love you💓💖💖💞💞

Please do a part two Mary! I found this super interesting and informative!
Everything you talked about I really relate to. The relationship with food and not being able to just eat food and go on, having to do the process of testing and taking insulin. I was diagnosed the day before Thanksgiving 4 years ago. I completely understand, thank you for this video!
how can people put their thumbs down for this video? its so sad, i feel so bad. love you Mary
Thank you for sharing your inspiring story! I can empathize with you so much. I don't have diabetes, but I do have other health issues that put me through a lot of the same/similar situations. Hearing your story has given me some hope for my future and not to let my health control my life.

Thanks for sharing. I was diagnosed at 23. I just got on with a Fire Department and I had to take a medical exam. Found out and I was dropped for medical from the Fire Academy.
I pushed through and became a Paramedic.

Aww, Mary is so strong. I’m so happy she’s able to tell us about her story. 😘☺️😘☺️
Loved your story and my daughter was excited to hear you had type 1 and killing it as an actress. We watched together and she laughed at me as tears welled up in my eyes. We have a local support group and it would be awesome if we could get you to maybe talk to the kids and tell them that it doesn’t define your ability to follow your dreams.
My husband was diagnosed with type 1 shortly after we were married, at age 25 (also 10 years ago!) We didn't realize what was going on because it's often called juvenile diabetes, and he was an adult. So if you, or someone you know is showing symptoms, get tested, even if you are in your twenties.
Thank you for your story Mary, and for raising awareness. You are killing it on Cobra Kai, and showing what it means to be a badass diabetic! 👊💥❤
You're such an amazing and strong person, and we all respect your bravery and confidence. stay strong!!
It feels good that this wonderful person is relatable to others who have diabetes...I'm glad.

Just amazing. So honest, earnest, and open to sharing her journey so that others can feel as if they are not alone. Thank you, Mary!!
When you talked about frequent urination and dehydration, it reminded me of what my mom said her symptoms were before being diagnosed with t1 diabetes. Both my younger brothers also had a lot of these symptoms before being diagnosed. It’s so amazing to hear about how you overcame your struggles! 💜
Hey it’s been about 7 months of me having t1d and I just came across your video and it was very inspiring to hear your story. It helped me notice that I am in a sister/brother hood of t1ds and it is helping me get through all this. Keep it up and stay positive!👍🏼🥰
