Welcome home Dragonfly. Your diagnosis is so recent...how's it all going? I just want to say, after your comment above...you CAN do all the right stuff and STILL get diabetes due to genetics! So don't beat yourself up...work from there, and stay positive. We're all in this together. You are not alone :)
This is a great place to share, to learn, and to grow...all the while meeting new people world wide, and making friends ♥
