One of the things I like about living a healthy life with diabetes is that there’s always something new to learn. I doubt there will ever be a day when I say, “Okay, that’s it, I totally understand everything about my condition now. I don’t need to learn anything new.”

One of the things I don’t like about living a healthy life with diabetes is that it’s sometimes hard to know which information to trust – who is giving real, trustworthy information and who is simply spouting half-truths.
