One year ago today I started this blog because I felt lost. My daughter had been diagnosed with diabetes and I was overwhelmed. Then, she got sick for the first time since diagnosis. I had all of these thoughts and feelings flying around in my head and I knew if I didn't get them out, I would go crazy. So I wrote about those scary 24 hours and I felt better.
Things have come a long way in a year. We have come a long way in a year. Are there times I still feel overwhelmed by diabetes? Of course. But now I have found a whole community of people who understand what I am going through and help me to see we are not alone. I have also gained confidence in my ability to care for my daughter. Are there times that I feel confused? Of course. But now I know that is how it will be with diabetes. Diabetes doesn't always make sense and the more I accept that the easier my road is.
Thank you for being a part of our journey so far and I hope you continue with us on Our Type 1 Trip...
Happy Blog-aversary!!
