A Smiley Cuddly
It was crucial for Betes to be cute and cuddly! And we knew if we wanted to create something for the T1D community, we had to do it right.
Betes is specifically the perfect size for: little cuddles throughout the day, to stand out in support of T1 Diabetes, and to put a smile on anyone's face.
Community Defined
Betes, first of all is inspired by an Axolotl - an animal whom is known to regenerate body parts.
But most of all Betes wears an Insulin Pump & Sensor to spread awareness and build confidence with T1D.
At Diabetic Supply we always try to show how much we understand what life is like with diabetes. Especially from a parents view of a T1D child. This takes us back to when our son was first diagnosed with type one diabetes.
A positive moment from the very first day, was when Evan was handed a Rufus the bear by his new Diabetes Specialist Nurse. This was to give him comfort for his first overnight stay in hospital being woken up for finger pricks every couple of hours.
We wanted Betes to be a ready-made friend to support your child with their Diabetes journey, so they feel less alone, so they can share in the little wins and firsts along the way.
