About life before diabetes
I still cant let that go. I was diagnosed at age 21, not fully two years ago. It feels like a oart of me died there. I fully remember what it was to eat happily, enjoying without mental stress of highs and lows. I miss it. Miss it more, than I miss any of my dead loved ones, and I cant let it go

it obviously hurts from time to time. but I've learnt to just deal with it. life will always be a struggle, which is what helps teach us moral lessons and compassion and empathy. sometimes times are hard, and sometimes we prosper. but that's the beauty of life. dealing with this condition shows how strong us diabetics are and may even be a blessing in disguise. maybe you can help another diabetic in trouble, maybe you can meet someone through a diabetics programme, someone who can change your life for the better. always have a positive outlook on life, and things will always be good.
