It has made me a more responsible person over the years. I am a lot healthier than most of my friends. I know how to control my weight better than a lot of people. I am more knowledgeable about a lot of things in the medical field. I am just thankful to HaShem that there is a better way to help us manage our diabetes than many years ago.
Life is very unpredictable.
But if you live life accepting that you are just a little different than the person next to you, and you are happy that you can still stay healthy even though you have that slight difference, then you will be able to live life to the fullest. But if you live life thinking that because you have this condition, your life is horrible, then it probably will be. Ok, it is not that great, but it's not all that bad. It could be a lot worse. Always remember and be happy that you know your challenge in life, and you are doing your utmost to control it.
