D-Blog Week - We grow up

"Let’s do a little advocating and post what we wish people knew about diabetes.  Have more than one thing you wish people knew?  Go ahead and tell us everything."


Type 1 is still commonly referred to as juvenile diabetes, but what people don't seem to know is that we grow up and diabetes doesn't go away. 


When I was diagnosed at age 3, I had to test my blood sugar multiple times per day and take insulin to survive. Now 27 years later, I still have to test my blood sugar multiple times per day and take insulin to survive. I will continue to do so until there is a cure. 


I loved Rainbow Brite when I was dx.
