What if we tell you that three minutes of a documentary is more than enough to learn everything you need to know about a certain disease?

Loading Docs is a series of documentaries, all focusing on incredible life stories. And they all last for just three minutes.

In this documentary, we meet Dahlia, a four year old girl that takes through a journey in her bittersweet world of blood, needles and sugar.

Dahlia is just one of the many children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. According to statistics, more than 200,000 Americans under the age of 20 are affected by type 1 diabetes. The symptoms are hard to notice, as they include common conditions.

Some of the symptoms associated with type 1 diabetes are fatigue, nausea, weight loss, abdominal pain, blurry vision, and increased thirst.

Take a look into the world of Dahlia, and make sure to take care of your young ones, and do not ignore the symptoms they are manifesting.
