Dancing her heart out – Never feel sorry for yourself

Shanvi Rawat, a 15-year-old, charismatic girl has been living with type 1 diabetes for the past six years. She along with the daily hustles of low and high in BG levels doesn’t leave behind her passion for dance and sports. She is actively seen posting videos of her dance in various Indian and Western forms on her social media handles. Her love for outdoor games like basketball and football is something to be appreciated about.

Talking about her diabetes diagnosis, she and her family had the same feelings and struggles like any other family would. However, all the people around, her family, relatives, and her school have been really compassionate and supportive to her. School staff has been really cooperative with her since the beginning and that she is active in sports, they do take good care of her during her ongoing physical activity.

As a girl studying in 9th standard, she is managing well with her studies and diabetes management. What really is inspiring about her is her dream to qualify the examination of National Defense Academy and join the Indian Army. Her uncle, maternal grandfather and paternal grandfather all have served the Indian Army and she just gets the same emotions when she sees all the meddle clinging at her home. Diabetes should nowhere stop her from dreaming and living her dreams either.
