Hey everyone.

Ginger asked me to make a new share post.

Well I cant believe it but its been 9 months now since I was diagnosed.

I turned 19 on the 21st. It was the first birthday with a sugar free cake (:

Well I am doing really well. I have been on the pump since april.

on facebook I joined a diabetes group and I have connected with a lot more diabetics, so it helps to be able to relate to people on that level.

my pancreaus is still going through the honeymoon phase so my levels can be random at times.

I appreciate everyone who reached out to me when I first joined diabeteens.

And I'd love to get to know more diabetics so feel free to message me or add me to facebook (:

Thanks Hilary

THanks for the update, Hilary! Glad to hear it's going well and you're pumpin' it up!

 

How's diabetes in college? Pretty manageable? College parties and all that?

Thanks Ginger!

 

Well college has not really changed managing my diabetes to much, I mean I do eat a lot more junk food, and I do sometimes forget to check my blood 2 hours after I eat because I'm busy, but as far as parties I don't know what advice to give because I don't drink (: I'm only 19 and believe it or not I don't participate in underage drinking, I might know more about that when I'm legally able to drink (:

 

Thanks for asking!

 

Hope all is well

(sorry im an not as active anymore, ill try to be tho)

Hi Hilary!

I wasn't on Diabeteens this summer, so I think I missed your first post. It's great that you're doing well; I'm interested to hear how your change to college has been since I'm a high school senior this year.

It's nice to "meet" you Wink

Hi Maggie!

 

Well I believe my first sharepost is still on my profile (:

As far as the college transition I answered that in my reply to Ginger!

 

Nice to meet you to!

 

Hilary!
