Dream Day
I’m reposting an old blog post today. The prompt is to write about my dream day. I hiked up a mountain today, which was dreamy (sort of), but it would have been a lot more fun without diabetes. Here it is: Tudiabetes.org has … Continue reading

Diabetes Lifeline
Today’s prompt is to write about the ten things I couldn’t live without. This will be short. I obviously can’t live without insulin. I thought about putting my kids, but I realize that despite being unthinkable, I would have to … Continue reading

Best Diabetes Visit
I’m using one of my bonus prompts today, because it’s a ‘free day’ and I have no brain cells left to think of something on my own. I spent the day in an incredible training with Todd Musselman. I highly … Continue reading

Diabetes Haiku
My haiku is dedicated to James Bennett, wherever he is. My haiku will make sense to those who went to Clara Barton Camp or Camp Joslin in the 80s. For an explanation, visit this post. Anyone can join the 117 … Continue reading
