My reaction to “Many Schools Failing on Type 1 Diabetes Care”
Here I am, with a long post. I'm supposed to be asleep, and I can't. So I'm gonna get my thoughts out and go to bed, hopefully. I couldn't fit them all into the character limit of a tweet. So I'm calling this a reaction- my feelings on the subject as well as some mini … Continue reading My reaction to “Many Schools Failing on Type 1 Diabetes Care”
Getting Stir-Crazy: Diabetes and Getting Sick Addition
I honestly cannot remember the last time I was this sick. To be honest, I don’t think I have been “this” sick since high school.

Mother Nature is calling… again. Wait, on a regular basis.
I don’t know if you would call this embarrassing or scary or annoying (or all three plus other adjectives concerning this). Maybe even TMI….? But first- let’s time travel. I was in Kindergarten, age 5 or 6. Pre-diagnosis in 1st Grade. As a child, there was something about asking to use the bathroom during a non-specified time, … Continue reading Mother Nature is calling… again. Wait, on a regular basis.
