Type 1 John - Day 30 - WAS IT WORTH IT?

A month's challenge to get a grip on my type 1 diabetes before it gets a grip on me. Has a deep dive into the condition actually worked? 

TODAY: What are the top 5 things I've learnt - and the things you could learn to?

Hi, I'm John and I've set myself one simple challenge: 30 days to finally get a grip... before diabetes gets a grip on me.  A short daily podcast, reflecting my 24 hours and my 10 years of stories.

This is just me trying to keep myself accountable. Saying it out loud - so I can't ignore it anymore. And hopefully making a few friends along the way too.

If you've ever looked around and thought everyone else seems to have diabetes completely sorted, come and have a look at my mess.

It's not perfect diabetes. But it is honest diabetes.

If any of this sounds like you, hit subscribe and come along for the ride. Maybe we can remind each other that we're not nearly as alone, as we sometimes think.
