?Type 1 is important,? Mollie Busby from Riding on Insulin said at Riding On Insulin?Canada West this weekend. ?It basically means your pancreas is broken and it doesn?t produce insulin, which is a hormone needed to sustain life.?
Insulin puts nutrients into blood, Busby said, and so the youth out on Saturday with Type 1 were either fueling up on sugar or insulin regularly.
Riding on Insulin is an organization based out of the United States and Connected in Motion, a Canadian group with a similar mission, held a ski and snowboard camp for youth with Type 1 diabetes.
