Un troll no tiene ningún poder especial ni bueno ni malo, pero si quiere darle al troll poder tendrá poder. Si el troll alegra tu hijo, le da un punto de vista positivo, puede ayudarles mejorar su salud. Lo más importante es que sigue con sus medicamentos y chequeos de sangre y sigue una dieta baja en azucares simples.

you mean toys like this one?

Troll dolls, originally known as Leprocauns and also known as Dam dolls, Gonks, Wishniks, Treasure Trolls, and Norfins, became one of America's biggest toy fads beginning in the autumn of 1963, and lasting throughout 1965. With their brightly colored hair and cute faces, they were featured in both Life Magazine and Time magazine in articles which commented on the "good luck" they would bring to their owners. The troll doll is sometimes mistakenly referred to as a Kewpie doll.

I'n my opinion toys like this won't bring you good or bud luck. I don't even believe in luck, but only I believe in God

I know those trolls, but I don't expect anything of them. It's like the "magic bracelet" (with a different color for a different purpose", or the "lucky witches" (witch for love, witch for work,..), or the "runes", or tons of thing like these.

Muy estimada esposa de Crotalito.
Los trolls, las brujas de la suerte, las pulseras mágicas, etc, son objetos divertidos pero NO FUNCIONAN.
Si un hijo tiene una enfermedad, al principio se busca la solución médica. Si tras varios años luchando contra la enfermedad se consigue poco, el alma de una madre angustiada busca cualquier cosa que le de un poco de esperanza, pero tienes que tener en cuenta que otros millones de madres están en el mismo problema.
Gastarte un par de dolares por comprar el troll no pasa nada, quizás hasta el niño se divierta unos días, y le haga reir como el juguete que es, pero que no esperes ninguna sanación. Sólo en España entre el 5 y el 10% de la población (unos 4 millones de personas) tienen diabetes. Si el troll funcionase, ¿no piensas que en cuanto entrases en el hospital te darían uno?¿Que miles de madres ya lo habrían comprado?.
La diabetes se conoce desde los tiempos de los griegos. Tras 2000 años, sólo se ha conseguido tratar con dieta e insulina. Entiendo que te refugies en los rezos para que tu hijo lo lleve bien, o en la ciencia para que encuentre una cura mejor, pero no busques refugio en unos simples juguetes de plástico. Son juguetes, y como tales traen alegría (que siempre es importante y ayuda a llevar los sufrimientos) pero no cura.

Puede responder en español para cualquier duda, inconveniente o aclaración que desee.
Siempre suyo,
Sosia

I know about diabetes.
Well, maybe the trolls that bring bad luck are the scary-looking ones. The ones that aren't scary probably won't bring bad luck (I don't believe in luck, though).

Ι'm sorry my Spanish aren´t enough to translate
But I ll be glad if u can say this to your wife
I had a friend who suffers because of Diabetes .It started when she was very small.... about 6 years old and now she is 27. She learned how to live with it and with the right medicines she never faced any problem. She went to study in another town and now she is a teacher in a Greek island.
that I whant to say is thas your wife had to learn to your kid that it happened, it won´t change. So make it easier... and he had a life like othern kids.
I don´t know if she beleived in God ...and in mircles.... (that´s a personal issue) I do believe and that safed my life ...keep faith
I wish the best for your kid... God bless you

Aprendió a convivir con la enfermedad y tomando la medicación correcta nunca ha tenido problemas. Se fue a estudiar a otra ciudad y ahora es profesora en una isla griega (Nota: NiAR es también griega)
Lo que quiero decirte es que tu mujer tiene que comprender que lo que le ha pasado a tu hijo no tiene vuelta atrás, no remitirá ni cambiará. Tienes que hacerle a tu hijo la vida más fácil.... y entonces tendrá una vida como la de cualquier otro.
No sé si tu mujera cree en Dios... o en los milagros... (es un asunto personal) pero yo creo y eso me salva/da fuerzas... sigue creyendo/ten fé.

Deseo lo mejor para tu hijo... que Dios te bendiga.
