A little bit about me getting type1 and how i changed!

when I was first diagnosed with diabetes i was hysterical , at first i thought i was going to die(no lie). then once the dr. explained more about the disease i was relieved but still thought to myself why me. as time passed i neglected it, trying to think Like i didn't have a disease and was being really thick headed for about 4 years of my life i was stubborn and didn't take care of myself, from going into the hospital to have hyperglycemia back to back. once i hit a certain age i thought to myself i can be stubborn my whole life and forget about type 1 like it wasn't there or i can some what turn my life around and make up for those year of damage to my body. now I'm 20 yrs of age just recently was diagnosed with celiac disease as well, which limits your eating even more with type 1 (lol); but I'm eating better my sugars are some what better and I'm happier. right now im looking forward to maybe starting on the pump. im putting this article up because if there is people who are out there with issues on copeing with yourself or the disease im here to shed some light because i have been though a lot for such a short spam of having type 1 diabetes. no matter what you do always think positive and do your best to take care of yourself because your the one in control or trying to be in control(lol referring to sugars) and people can say things to help but the people who dont have the disease don't know how tough it could be at times.
