"Because of my weight from an unrelated adrenal problem, everyone always says, but you must be a t2, and if you would just lose weight you wouldn't need medication right? Ugh..."

Tell us more about you (optional)
I have multiple other health conditions, and spent most of high school in the hospital before finally getting strong enough to go away to college -- 5 hours away from my family at the University of Maryland. I had to come home after three semesters because I was too sick. I've gotten so much stronger since December, 2006 when I came home. I am redefining who I am. I am not sick, but a person with multiple medical conditions who happens to sometimes get sick, and my t1 is something that is not going to go away any time soon.
I am back in college now to get my bachelors in Public Health and then go onto my Masters of Public Health, both in nutrition counseling, and hope to do the combined program in Masters of Social Work to help people with chronic illnesses, like Diabetes. Somewhere along the way, I hope to become Certified Diabetes Educator. My passion is being able to reach someone else and help them realize that control is important, not just for doctors, CDEs, or parents, but for themselves, to prevent complications down the line, and I love helping teens and young adults realize this message!

A Giveaway to think about a Diabetes Cure!

Posted on December 29, 2011 at 2:31am 0 Comments

This was originally posted on my personal blog on Tuesday, December 20, 2011, which was the first night of Chanukah.

Getting back to my blog. It has been such a long time away from my nice, sweet, niche in this corner of cyberspace. My health robbed me from fully participating in Diabetes Awareness Month, and so that is why now, at the start of the holiday season, with tonight being the first Chanukah light, I will finally be able to post about my giveaway! This giveaway is going to…

And One Number...

I woke up today

to a bright, shining day

my number was good, a 79



and off a meet up where others

i hoped to greet

the smile on my face soon turned

when for coffee 'twas just me and my mother



with numbers still good, a 107 before lunch

off to the next stop we went

and talked and talked a bunch

laughing too along the way and it was a day well spent



but home again,… Continue

Sheine neshama, you have brought tears to my eyes. All I am trying to do is my small part of Tikkun Olam, and to find that someone has appreciated my small efforts means the world to me. I'm currently in Albuquerque doing an elderhostel course on Conversos and CryptoJews (the descendants of those who were expelled from Spain, whether they know they're Jewish or not), but you will be in my heart on the day of your surgery. I will be hoping to hear from you when you are feeling better and hoping that quality of life will improve for you! Neshikot.
