At the end of the day you’re alone, nothing’s going to change that. But the truth is we are more alone than them, yes we might have each other (diabetics), but we are alone. No one understands, not family, friends, not even we fully understand. Diabetes is too often overlooked, not understood, and many other things. I would never want nor need anyone’s sympathy, but for once I would like for someone to understand! What it’s like to take insulin, feel a low, a high, or even no what it’s like to sit through a health class that’s directed towards a diseases you have (even though they don’t know what they are talking about). We are all alone, but we are more alone than others. // Shared on My Diabetes Secret

What is courage? I think courage is in the eye of the beholder. As a diabetic I’ve never met nor seen anyone see diabetics as courageous people. I think that’s because we are courageous every day. Not by choice but by faith, so the next time you get judged, remember, we are all COURAGEOUS. // Shared on My Diabetes Secret

If you feel the need to share, My Diabetes Secret will always be here.

The same goes for my peers living with any other chronic disease at My Chronic Disease Secret.

Have a nice weekend.
