Happy Anniversary

BG[CGM]: 85

eleven years ago today, I got married. Happy Anniversary, Matt.

Thanks for being such a great support, for learning who I am and how my diabetes changes me. I wish all married diabetics someone just like you.

Love you.

Bethanne is not a doctor or a nurse or a diabetes educator or even a dietitian, please don't take her ramblings as advice for your healthcare.

What she is, is a Type I diabetic. Diagnosed in 1988 at the age of 12 when she had a hyperglycemic meltdown on The World's Finest Chocolate, stealing the candy bars from her sister's fundraiser box for St. James Elementary School. Since then, she has survived adolescence, survived college--barely, first loves and broken hearts... Finally, she decided to quit surviving and to LIVE. Now, she lives for her best friend and husband. She lives for her four children. She lives for her Faith, and for her writing.

Living the best diabetic life is her key to survival.
