    • About Me

      I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in July of this year. I live alone and have no support. The doctor just gave me testing supplies and said to test twice a day and that is it. I am not a big eater, in fact I don't like to eat. But love to exercise diabetes is in my family. I would love to find someone that is dealing with this disease to share with. And of course for support.
