When I Think About Diabetes...

When I think about diabetes, I think about:
  • blood drops
  • trips to Los Angeles
  • lots and lots of test strips
  • a blood spotted pillow case
  • juice boxes
  • time
  • speckled fingers
  • snacks, snacks, snacks
  • math
  • measuring cups
  • midnight
  • explanations
  • carbs
  • numbers
  • tissues
  • the past
  • the present
  • the future
  • a little girl
When you think of diabetes, what do you think about?
