Hiya, I'm 19 years old and have been diabetic since I was 18 months. I've hit a stage in my life where my diabetes has just hit a blip.

I had amazing control of my diabetes and then I hit the age where the hospital don't seem to know what to do with you so I am in the "Young Adult Clinic". A few years back I changed over to Novorapid and levemir insulin.

Being at school with diabetes was always hard when I was younger as the kids all thought it was contageous, once they found out it wasn't they were fine but going round their houses for parties or what ever and not being able to eat the cakes and sweets - This was when diabetes wasn't too common and they weren't too sure on it I guess - was hard.

Anyway, I hope I can meet new people on here as that is my main problem - I don't know anyone with diabetes!

I Live for the weekend (and sometimes Monday nights)

I am a bubbly blonde, who loves to laugh and make other people happy. No doubt about it the best laughs are those propper belly laughs!

I work full time as an Office Administrato­r - very boring, but it pays for my car.

When I'm not working I love going for a few drinks, going out with mates, cinema or sitting in watching movies, and my newest thing - cooking!

I love almost all sports and have a season ticket for my local football team.

Another major passion of mine is music! I will listen to anything that sounds decent (In my opinion) and will do so all day long. If I really like it I might even have a little dance.
