Kidney Pancreas Transplant

Hi Everyone!!

I just wanted to share a little about my story. I was diagnosed with diabetes at the age of 2. I started having eye problems in my teens and experienced kidney failure in August 2000. After being diabetic for 30 years and being on dialysis for almost 7 years I received a kidney pancreas transplant on July 13, 2007. I am happy to say that I am doing very well and for the first time in my life that I can remember I am living without diabetes!! I hope to share my life experiences and meet others whose lives have been affected by diabetes.

:-)Heather
