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.
