What's it like to have diabetes?

This is a video put out by the ADA to promote the walk and talk about being a Red Strider, someone who walks with diabetes.  I received one of these hats last year and it made me feel special, not different.  As we began to walk, I looked behind me and realized that all of those people were there for me and the other diabetics.  A very humbling yet empowering experience knowing that I have others to support me in this journey.

  1. Hi! Thanks for the comment on my blog...always nice to meet someone new! I grew up in southwest Iowa, so I've been jealous of everyone down there being able to get outside a little bit! Our temps *might* be a little bit warmer next week...we'll just have to wait and see. Hope your spring break is good!!!
