Diabirthday

 After three years of diabetes it has just become a daily ritual. I’ve learned to live with something that has given me so much of a chance to become a more of a will powerd person. Diabetes has made me feel like I am part of a tribe, when ever I see another diabetic I light up, since I know that they too have to live like this for their life The following is my post I posted from instagram about diabetes. And my last three years of living with this new life. 

Three years of diabetes has changed who I am today, because of all the right and wrong choices I have made. I want to inspire people. I want someone to look at me and say "because of you I didn't give up". I want to show others with diabetes and without that anything is possible; that you were given this life because you are strong enough and brave enough to live it. Since "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" Diabetes has had lots of hard challenges, except from those hardships I have become a better person. I have worked hard even when I feel like giving up, and from working hard, I have been able to experience many wonderful adventures, friendships and opportunities that I would never have the chance to experience without diabetes. Not only has diabetes taught me how to become a better person it has given the chance to become more responsible, more of a dedicated athlete, stronger, and more understanding of others. Not only has my family taught to to keep working hard, but my friends have always been there to tell me that "you are strong enough to live a life with diabetes."  Diabetes has created astonishing friendships and memories. When someone asks me what that "thing" is on my side (my pump) I used to ignore their request for an answer. Although, after three years of going to camp and meeting others who don't mind walking around with a pump connected to there waist and their site in their arm or leg while talking about what makes them different, it has shown me that I don't have to worry  about what others possibly think. Everyone with diabetes probably have something that they hate about it. We all have the hard times, but most of the time we can find sugar linings from the most painful parts. Probably for me one of my biggest pet peeves is when someone comes up to me and says to me "I feel so bad for you, since you have a DISEASE and have to give yourself shots all the time." I HATE getting defined that I have a disease! I'm not diabetes, I'm ME! Most of all I'm thankful for my friends and family, all my amazing diabetic friends, everyone of you who read this, and everyone who inspires me to keep doing what I am doing.

Diabirthday

Ten years ago today I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. That’s 18,250 finger sticks, according to my very conservative estimate.

This day six years ago, August 4th 2009 I my life was permanently changed. I was diagnosed with Type One Diabetes. As an eight and a half year old I was completely terrified of what was going to happen. Three days in the hospital and I was sent back home to spend the rest of my life dealing with the chronic disease. I have learned many things since then, made best friends with other diabetics; gone on shots and then switched to the pump many times and vice versa. I have learned responsibility, how to take care of myself and but it's given me plenty of opportunities I wouldn't have been apart of. Although having T1 is a struggle at times, insulin shots, 3am blood sugar checks and eating a great amount of glucose tabs and juice, it will all be okay. •Teen wolf S3EP24- The Divine Move• "It's a bit of a technical way of saying things will always even out." "Like things will always get better?" "More like things can't always be bad." "So, no matter how bad things get" "...Or how good." "They always come back to the middle. Regression to the mean." (This quote doesn't belong to me, all credit goes to those wrote/created teen wolf and this quote, but I believe it kinda explained how everything will always be okay) -Becca
