My name is Haley. I am 21 and I have had Type One Juvenile Diabetes for 15 years. Feels kind of like an AA meeting.
I am writing this blog to keep track of my ventures as I re-learn to kick diabetes' ass and get back in control of myself. I have not been the best at controlling this disease. What normal person really wants to take shots multiple times daily? I didn't and still don't, however I have to, or the truth of the matter is, I will not live a very long life.
So, today is day one. I haven't blogged before, so I am sure until I get the hang of it, most of my posts will be rambling. I will ramble about what life is like having diabetes, being married and having a very supportive spouse, as well as family and friends.cooking for two while staying inside my dietary limits, exercising, carb counting, and controlling my sugars. I am also using this blog as motivation for anyone who may decide to follow it. Especially, if you have a child or family member with diabetes.
Fun, right?
You will get an inside look into what it's like for me to Live Normal with Diabetes.
Haley,
ReplyDeleteBoth of my parents have been insulin dependent from middle age on. So I know a little bit about what you're going through. We've always had to carefully monitor their diet. Thank you so much for starting this blog. You might just help someone along the way.
Love,
Carroll Miniard
