Just want to give a HUGE shout out to Alaska Airlines. Talk
about customer service. I experienced it multiple times on my trip. First
experience was on my trip from Seattle to New Orleans. I was not feeling well
and the stewardess asked if I would like a tums and ginger ale. That
settled my stomach and I felt sooo much better. Next was on the flight from New
Orleans to Seattle. A friend was seated
in a window seat and she is extremely claustrophobic, she asked the attendant
if she could switch and he said he will do his best to switch her to an aisle
seat. He must have called 10 names before someone finally agreed to switch. He
could have just said no and not try but he did. WOW! Lastly - Having a terrible
cold and flying I wasn't at peak performance. I checked my bag and forgot to
tell AA that I had another flight scheduled into Spokane. So my options were to
grab my bag and go back through security and HOPE & PRAY the plane didn't
leave (Miss my fight) or get on my flight and PRAY that AA would make sure I
got my bags in Spokane. Thank GOD Alaska Airlines - Seattle-Tacoma Int'lAirport (SEA) and Alaska Airlines Spokane got it right. I was so worried that
someone would steal my bag and my memories from New Orleans but had faith in
AA. I proactively called Spokane (left a Voice Mail and had a call back
within minutes, That NEVER happens anywhere) and gave my baggage number and
explained what happened. Joni in Spokane said come by and see me when you land.
I gave Joni my contact information and she said you may have to come pick it up
when it arrives tomorrow. I had no problem with that since it was my mistake.
But Joni said with confidence we should have your bag tonight or in the
morning, totally putting my mind at ease and I believed that I would get my bag
back. The next morning (today) I called as Joni asked to see if the bag arrived
and left a voice mail, got a message back saying my bag arrived and it was
being delivered. WOW, OMG, BLOWN AWAY, Whatever you are doing to train your
employees it's working. I have to say with the free in flight wi-fi movies,
iPhone charger, and Amazing Customer Service I couldn't ask for more! Keep up
the good work because that's how you gain new customers for life!!!

How did you know your child had Type 1 diabetes? Parents of children with diabetes will hear this question asked a million times. And each time you tell your story the story gets shorter and shorter. You begin to leave out details. Details that may one day save another child's life. I wrote this for a couple of reasons. The first reason was to document the details and help other families who are searching for answers to unexplained symptoms. The second reason was to really get my emotions off my chest, and reflect. December 30, 2016 is a day I will never forget. This date will now be forever know to us as Carter's " dia-versary." This was the day my seven year old son Carter was diagnosed with Type one Diabetes. I still tear up when I say or even write those words... my son was diagnosed with T1D. It all kind of happened so fast really. It was Christmas break 2016 and the kids were home for a couple of weeks. Things were normal as usual, stress right before...
