Introduction

Ok so i havent blogged for over a couple years now and really wanted to start it going again! I thought it best just to start a new blog entirely as so much has changed since then... and i thought what better month to start a new blog as it is diabetes awareness month (although every month is diabetes awareness month to me lol)

So my introduction.... I am Nikki, im 26 and i was diagnosed with type one diabetes in 2010 just before my 22nd birthday. I was in a pretty bad way when diagnosed and was very lucky to make it but thats a story i will go into more detail on a bit later. I have had ups and downs with my diabetes over the years as we all do but i feel myself lucky in other ways, i have a job as a support worker which i love and i have the most amazing friends that anyone could wish for, and great family support as well as the online community :)


So hopefully this blog will open peoples eyes a little more to diabetes, the ups, downs, struggles, humour, and also just general day to day life of a 26 year old lol. I will update and post as much as i can, feel free to follow and share :) x
