Voices of Diabetes


I have been a diabetic for the last 38 years. I started with oral medication and progressed to insulin. I have been on insulin for the last 28 years, and it gives me control.

Together with healthy foods and portion control, I can manage my blood sugar (glucose) very well. I eat 7 times a day in small quantities. It's difficult, but you learn how to live with diabetes. Being a single parent makes it difficult to manage your eating--especially if you have teenagers at home who like to eat out.
