Walking the T1D Tightrope

from $75.00

This painting was inspired by the daily reality of living with Type 1 Diabetes. The thin line that moves through the piece is made from real 12-hour CGM blood sugar graphs drawn by 13 youth ambassadors from the Breakthrough T1D South Central Texas Chapter. I connected their graphs into one continuous path to form a line that symbolizes a tightrope. Much like walking on a tightrope, managing T1D requires constant balance and adjustment of blood sugar levels throughout the day, with many factors such as food, exercise, stress, and hormones affecting those numbers. At the bottom of the painting, the line leads into a garden scene, symbolizing hope for healing - whether through a cure in this lifetime or complete healing in eternity with God.
