A year today I didn't know what the future held for me. I didn't know how much my life was about to twist and turn. If we were to go back to March 11th 2009, two days previous to being diagnosed I was in a much different place, physically and mentally.
I was absolutely clueless. Clueless! I hadn't even gone for blood work at this point yet I was drinking litres of liquids and visiting the washroom almost every half hour. Not everyone was clueless however at this point. My mom had an idea and I am sure she was just waiting for the day that I'd be diagnosed at this point.
In two days I will celebrate my one year anniversary of being diagnosed. Anyone who knows me knows that I wouldn't let this day go down without a little bit of a celebration. What am I celebrating you may be questioning? I am celebrating happiness, health and achievement.
I am happy with all of the amazing people that I have met thus far and my blogs have made it that much easier to connect with diabetics all around the world!
A year ago today I was clueless that soon I'd be a diabetic. But today I am very aware and living every moment of it with strength and inspiration.

July 4 will be my 2 year anniversary...its good to know that such an inconvienent thing as diabetes helps us to realize that life is meant to be lived, not wasted by monotony...
