Hide AdMichael said: “When Maeve was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, it came as a real shock. But right from the start, Maeve took diabetes by the scruff of the neck and found out as much as she could to manage the condition and keep it under control.
“She has worked so hard to keep going and as a family, we wanted to support her.”
