TuDiabetes

So often, I feel like I'm alone in this. I forget that others are having the same feelings, frustrations, and struggles. It's such an invisible disease that you can't tell by just looking at someone. Then there's a reminder, like yesterday, when I ran at the outdoor neighborhood track. I put the key in my car to open the door, ready to test and go home, and I look down and see a Freestyle test strip lying on the pavement. It made me feel less alone.
