In the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa, 13-year-old Jordan from Whitehouse, Westmoreland, faces unprecedented challenges in managing his type 1 diabetes. The storm’s destruction has disrupted his daily routine, particularly the storage of his life-saving insulin, which must be kept refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C. With power lines down and electricity unavailable, Jordan’s family has resorted to using an igloo filled with ice to preserve the medication. However, ice has become a scarce commodity, putting Jordan and others in a precarious situation as their insulin risks losing its potency.
