Hi everyone. My name is Andrew I am turning fifty this month but still feel young...I was diagnosed when I was just nine years old, but it was lucky as I was very close to dieing as my doctor was not familiar with diabetes...it was far more unknown then...
I enjoy life as much as possible I cannot let any illness hold me back...I enjoy singing and drawing ..Meatloaf is probably one of my favorates but I like almost evry type of music from reggae to rock ..I was brought up religeous but feel very agnostic now...I am in sales and marketing . It is quite hard to talk about myself as I usually try not to......I do get bad tempered sometimes but I beleive it is a diabetic trait....it is a well known fact that divorce among diabetics is high...
Hello friend I do want to contact you and share all my details..Are you still active in the community..
