Hello everyone!

Hope everyone's ok! It has been so long since I posted here! I'm always reading a lot though!

So, I'm currently on the second part of my year abroad, in Spain, which is awesome! Diabetes has been...difficult...but I'm slowly getting back on track and seeing good numbers! I've started writing again - it definitely helps keep me focused with diabetes. Everything needs to become "habit" again, if that makes sense! Things got so stressful with the move that my care pretty much became non-existant! But, like I've said, I'm getting there!

The Student Group that Lizzie (Lizabetic) and I started is still going really well: athough it is still a small group, it's still used lots more than we anticipated so we're really happy with that. We're a year old next month 🙂

I've also started writing again (blog here). It helps keep me focused on my diabetes, and gives me a place to vent when things get bad! I call it my "diabetes therapy" haha!

So...that's about it! How is everyone?!

Vicki 🙂

Hola Vicki! Nice to hear from you 🙂 Glad to hear things are settling down for you, and that you are having a fab time in Spain! Not at all jealous!!! :D

I've seen how busy and useful the FB group is for people, so well done to you and Lizzie for making it such a success. I will have a look at your blog - good to see that you are writing again, I really ought to be doing the same as I have been very neglectful!

I'm doing well at the moment, and the forum is still nice and busy with lots of new members joining all the time. And we are lucky to have so many members who have stuck with us and willing to offer such great support to others. Can't believe the forum will be 5 years old this year and we are approaching 10,000 members!

Take care and enjoy your time abroad - no experience like it! 🙂
