As If We Are Scientists

March 14, 2013
Ever since I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 8 years old in 1992 I began to learn and understand that my activity, food choices, and mental health all had an impact on my diabetes, or what we check multiple times a day, my blood sugar. Can it get frustrating? Yes; I'm preaching to the choir. But it's interesting. This situation (as in no one day is the same) allows me to understand my body in a way that others aren't able to do (is this the silver lining??).
