Type 1, the complex, unpredictable, super-sensitive chronic illness, can challenge all types of people in all sorts of situations. We have faced discrimination. We have faced ignorance. We have thrown our hands up and surrendered. We have slaved to treat. And about 88% of the time we have confidence in what we're doing.
Just because we live this every minute of every hour of every day, does not mean we are not thrown surprises. Most people fail to recognize the complexity of type one and the millions of possible variables that can factor into affecting it. Its a lot like trying to memorize all the possible ingredients that contain gluten. This year has been a tough year for my daughter for a multitude of reasons. In regards to T1 though, we have faced a lot of high blood sugars, ketones, and high A1Cs. We ended up back at the hospital last week. We even recognized the ED doctors and nurses, which is not a good sign.
