Diabetes forces children to remember and follow difficult rules and lead a certain way of life from a very young age. This is the case with the 60 children attending the 13th edition of the Al Bawasil camp at Doha?s Aspire Zone.
These little ones, aged seven to 11 years, have travelled to Doha leaving behind their families in several countries: Morocco, Lebanon, Yemen, Bahrain, Jamaica, Sudan, Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Uganda, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, besides Qatar.
Ammad, from Egypt, is 10 years old and very happy to participate in the week-long camp and meet other kids with diabetes. His caretaker, Mahmoud from Palestine, who is in charge of 10 children, says: ?This is very good for them, even though they all take care of themselves from a very young age.?
On his part, Nasser, a nine-year-old from Qatar, said: ?We have to be especially careful with what we eat. Today we learned about carbohydrates and other food we should and should not eat.? It?s the second time he is taking part in the camp, because ?it?s very nice.?
