Many of us that have battled diabetes have been down many different paths; some Type 1's and others Type 2's, some 10 years others 30 years, some with positive outcomes and others with not as positive outcomes. The common thing is that no matter what path you've been on - you've had smart, well informed, well educated, and dedicated people that have taken their time to explain, teach, inform, and coach us to success in therapy (whether we believe that or not). To them I want to say thank you. These are the dedicated professionals that try to guide us even if our navigation system is off, answer all of our questions simply because they believe we deserve answers, that are patient with us when they stated the answer in 5 different ways, that humor us when we feel we've learned all we need to know - but they know different. These are those that understand and empathize with our pain and tell us what we need to hear even when they know we'll do the complete opposite. To them I say thank you, from all of of us. Hopefully, this blog will be a resounding theme for their voices and inspire many to take more control of their therapy and be empowered to master this disease, even as I've been empowered.
With that being said - let's continue with the work of educating...
