Samuel-Grant

What We're About

Why are we doing this?

Samuel was diagnosed as a Type 1 warrior in March 2016 (just 5 days before Easter!), understanding what this new condition meant for him and his family was hard and Samuel wished that there was a book he could have read that let him know it was gonna be ok! He wanted to help others have hope in a hard time and that desire was the birthplace for his book, mixed with the inspiration of one of his favourite authors Dr. Suess.

He explained that telling his friends about his diabetes journey was like talking to an alien as they just didn’t understand it, and that was when he thought of Zegg. Samuel has acquired funding and worked hard to make this book a reality that he can gift many copies to the hospital that have helped him so much and to other children as they begin their own Type 1 journey.

He is now 13 and his life is almost hardly limited by his diabetes, he has highs and lows and has to take insulin but he has a life full of adventure, joy and hope.

Thank you for stopping by and for helping us to give hope to children who are newly donated, each book really does help a new family after the bombshell has dropped and the world has been turned upside down.
