Living with diabetes has been a journey of learning, resilience, and self-awareness. I’ve learned to listen to my body more closely, to understand how food, stress, sleep, and activity all play a role in my blood sugar levels. There have been highs and lows, literally and emotionally, but each challenge has taught me something new. Support from my healthcare team, family, and others living with diabetes has made a huge difference. It’s comforting to know I’m not alone, and that my experiences can help others too. Diabetes is part of my life, but it doesn’t define me. I’ve found strength in the struggle, and I’m proud of how far I’ve come.
