Mighty Sticker Club

Welcome to Ethan and Larry, our newest members of the Mighty Sticker Club. To become a member, one must master the steps of self-infusion, including mixing factor, selecting a vein, sticking oneself, infusing factor, and completing a treatment calendar.

Ethan is 8 years old and is in third grade this year. He has attended Camp Wannaklot for two years and loves the water slide and climbing tower. He enjoys playing tennis. “The hardest part about learning to infuse is facing your fears,” Ethan shared with his outreach nurse, Nancy.
 
Larry is also 8 years old and in third grade. He enjoys playing soccer and playing outside. Larry told us, “The hardest thing about infusing was learning to get the vein.” His outreach nurse, Nancy, said, “When he got it the first time, he was so happy!”

The boys were awarded Mighty Sticker Club certificates and gift cards for their effort. Nancy shared, “I feel like a proud mama!” Congratulations.
