Some things I wish I could have told myself at diagnosis of age 9:

1) You know your body better than anyone else. Listen to it. Trust it.
2) Everyone is different, and so is there diabetes. There is no “right” way of doing things.
3) It’s okay to cry. It’s better to laugh.
4) Your numbers are not a reflection of who you are.
5) It won’t hold you back….from anything.
6) There is always more to learn.
7) Explore your body and your disease. Find your personal diabetic fit. It can change, and that’s okay.
