December is right around the corner, so while we have definitely been enjoying fall, winter is coming.
Growing up in Colorado, I was lucky to always have the change of seasons. However, I did not realize that until I moved away and lost those changes. Winter is not the same without at least a sprinkle of snow. This weekend we will be celebrating her diaversary (8.27.2013). What is a diaversary do you say? It’s the day one was diagnosed with type 1 and lives as we know it change with no turning back. It acknowledges all the hard work and effort that goes into caring for this diagnosis and how it impacts everything that we do yet doesn’t stop us from doing things. It celebrates being a “diabadass” even though we didn’t choose or deserve this fate.
So for this 5 & 5 (pros & cons) I bring you the topic of having TYPE 1 Diabetes. Introducing a new series, hoping this gets me writing more. I’m calling it my 5 & 5 series. Each post will take a topic and point out 5 pros and 5 cons. While I think it is always important to focus on the positives in life, I think it helps to recognize the negative attributes and be aware of them to help minimize the impact that you allow them to have on you. Driving down a street you want to be able to see the potholes in order to avoid them.
So for the first topic I have chosen TECHNOLOGY. Now this is one that may come up more than once because there are so many more pros and cons than just 5, but this is a topic that has come up in some of my conversations lately and one that is tied very closely to the advancement in treatment of T1D. So let’s begin…. |
