Two years ago today I was told I was type one and sent home with a bag of tricks which I had no idea what to do with! Luckily my neighbour has a son who is type one so I knocked at her door the next morning in my dressing gown saying Help!
I then found this forum and with huge trepidation posted and read others posts. I was terrified and revisited my PTSD, difficult days, weeks and months. Now with the help and support of this wonderful forum I am doing very well and feel safe and confident again. I have had (and probably will again) my moments but can always ask here for help and support and I have the inner resources to cope.
I have again a busy life, I often give talks and so happy with how well I am doing. I am called difficult by the medical professionals but why break a lifetime pattern!
So deep gratitude to you all, thanks for all your amazing support, and I am celebrating today! Not sure how yet but it feels important to mark my progress.
