Today is the 16th anniversary of my diabetes diagnosis. Although each July 27 marks another year that I've lived with diabetes, what does it mean to acknowledge a "diabetes anniversary"?
Anniversaries are commonly acknowledged as significant dates among people with type 1...


I think that marking each year that we have learned and dealt with our diabetes is a year that we should celebrate!
I think it is great that I am not the only TYpe 1 that celebrates their annivesary. My husband finds it odd that Dec. 22nd means so much to me. Man 15 years ago, Dec 22nd changed my life. It was a huge day in my life and I wil never forget it. I believe that our anniversaries are definetly something to celebrate and even though people around us don't quite understand why, we do. That's all that matters.
