Diagnosed at age three, diabetes has always been a big
part of my life. Diabetes opened my eyes to new possibilities, new friends,
and new experiences. Nevertheless, it has also shown me the bad that can come
from an unwanted and undeserved disease - from causing me to go low during an important soccer game, to shooting up my blood
sugar during an important test!
As a diabetic of eighteen years, I feel that I have a lot of experience with this disease and want to
share my story with non-diabetics, as well as connect with my fellow diabetics
out there. Dealing with a 24/7 condition that occupies the most part of my life,
I found that one of my main goals is to help other like me, as well as educate
others willing to learn more about it!
In my blog, I will be discussing what it takes to be a T1D – from the daily routines to the ups and downs. I will
be sharing my inside thoughts and dreams, and stories where diabetes has
effected me in a big way and how I had to adjust from having this condition. In
the end, reading this blog will give you an insider scoop, inside the mind of a Type 1 Diabetic! Again, thank you all for reading and I hope you learn and get a lot
out of my blog.
