Hi, my name is Willow. I am 15 years old and in ninth grade. I have had type one diabetes since I was almost two. From about the time I was in second grade I have been doing the majority of my checking, shots, and logging. My dad is the one of my two parents that helps me the most with my diabetes. I hope to make some new friends here and get help with all sorts of things.See More

brokenpole said… - Welcome to the family!! On this forum you will learn so much. Most of what you will learn is that you are not alone. Everyone here is supportive and will provide answers to your questions. Search the site for answers. Read the discussions and blogs for information. There are videos to help you understand diabetes and its treatment. Most of all there is family to talk to and vent to, if needed.
