Hi!  I am Stacey, living with type 1 diabetes for 36 years.  I’ve had my “portable pancreas” (or insulin pump) for 10.  This is my story of coping with diabetes and everything else life has to throw at me.

I love my hubby, my identical twin sister, my mother, my nephews + nieces, my friends + family, my latest technology gadget, music, tattoos, fitness (when I’m feeling motivated anyway!), laughter, good food, good times and cute furry animals (of both the live and the stuffed variety!).

Disclaimer: I am not a medical professional nor am I trying to be one.  Please do not take my experiences as medical advice that should be followed.  Everyone’s diabetes is different.  I share with you my stories and experiences of living with diabetes in hopes of educating those who do not have much knowledge about it, supporting those who are going through similiar times and advocating for myself and all my PWD (people with diabetes) friends.
