Hi there everyone. My name is Stephen. I am 47 years old and I was recently told by my doctor that I had type 1 diabetes.
Throughout my life I have tried to live a healthy life.....and discovering I had this was a true and complete shock.....and it has really knocked me back so much.
Having to change your entre lifestyle is the hardest thing to do because you have to aware of absolutely everything.....and of course eating the things you used to like is now so much more difficult because of your blood sugar.....but I do fully believe that diabetes cannot beat me or the get the better of me...I have to be strong and I have to live.... and that`s what I will do.
