I was diagnosed with T1D in 2nd grade, when I was 7. I am now 18 and have just finished my first semester of college. As part of a scholarship program, I've created a blog (http://www.whoneedsbetacells.blogspot.com) intended mostly for teen/college aged kids with Diabetes. Through it, I focus on how Diabetes has just become a part of my life, not an aspect that defines me! I am, and have always been a strong believer in everything happening for a reason... I've found that if I walk through life with this mentality, all obstacles become bearable and eventually seemingly minimal. Anyone who is just plain fed up with Diabetes or feels like it is playing a bigger role in their lives than they want it to, please check out my blog. I would appreciate any feedback, post suggestions or comments! I feel that I am in an ideal place (having had Diabetes for 11 years, and just starting college) to use my story to not only inspire others, but help them with struggles I may or may not have already dealt with! Thanks :)

Hi everyone I'm tiegan I'm 15 years old and have type one diabetes , I got diabetes in 2007 at the age of 9 years old and took me ages to get my head around, I wa only a kid I was scared and confused my mum told me it was 'when you can't eat chocolate and for a kid to hear that was heartbreaking. I'm now 15 and take insulin shots but when I was just 11 years old I had a insulin pump but took it off due to complications, I don't really control it too well and was hoping for other teens to chat to about how they control their diabetes hope to ffind some good friends on here:) tiegan xx x x

Ciara, Helena, Emmy, Shy, Sarah and Nat: Have you guys managed to hook up? You're all looking for friends!  I manage the TuDiabetes website (with MUCH help from others), and I'd be happy to help you ladies get connected, if you'd like help.  Just let me know!
