Type 1 Diabetes, June 1991
“My blog isn’t strictly about Diabetes because I’m not strictly about it. Mostly I’m about tangents, non-sequiturs, and randomness. As is my Diabetes.”
I’ve been a Type 1 Diabetic for nearly twenty years. For most of that time I was the only Type 1 I knew. With each new person with Diabetes (PWD) & loved one of a PWD I meet, I learn something knew about Diabetes and about myself. I want to share what I learn not just with my own loved ones, but with the online community that I interact with on a daily basis with the hope that I will help raise awareness about Diabetes.
