That’s me. I’m Kelly. Livin’ that type one life since 2001.

Only within the past few years have I learnt to embrace my disease. My husband told me a few years ago that I ought to, “find some friends with diabetes”. Probably the best piece of advice I have ever taken.

Having only recently started to see the bigger picture, I find myself eager to share my journey. It’s quite possible that no one will read this, and I’m okay with that. Putting these words out into the universe is therapeutic for me. What a bonus it would be if my words were to inspire, provide hope or speak to someone living with the same disease; equally exciting it would be if my blog reached someone that cares for someone with diabetes (we call these people Type 3’s in the DM community).

Diabetes is hard, you guys. 
I am honest, slightly blunt. My words are never meant to hurt. This is my space, and I do not intend to curb my emotion or my words. I promise to be respectful in my writing, and I ask the same of anyone commenting.

Happy reading.
