Traveling, trials, and tribulations
About six weeks ago I was approached by Abbot here in the US to trial their new Freestyle Libre System. They sent me two free sensors and a reader and asked me to post on social media and here on the blog about my honest opinion of the product.

It’s been a huge month
This month I made it my business to step up and share in as many ways as possible why I feel more people should know about Diabetes. The more we can advocate, the more likely others will come onboard and help raise much needed funds in all sorts of arenas

Melitta is a true advocate for LADA (Latent Autoimmune Disease in Adults or Type 1.5) I find Melitta’s blogs and articles refreshing and grounded because she breaks open the difficult topic … Read More Seeking Balance
Set Your Intention
Happy New Year! It’s the beginning of another year and like everyone I am so excited to implement some new routines and try to let go of some challenging habits. I learned long ago that New Years Resolutions don’t really work.
