A Missouri mother lived through every parent’s worst nightmare when her 2-year-old daughter passed away. The brave mother now bears the pain of retelling her story in the hope that the loss of her child may save the lives of others.

Sierra Greenlee’s daughter, Arya, passed away on March 22, 2018, from undiagnosed Type 1 diabetes, a condition that is not routinely tested for in preschool-aged children. After her daughter’s passing, Sierra made the brave decision to share her story of loss on social media in order to help raise awareness of the potentially deadly disease.
