Diabetes struggle

​We all have something to contend with
Looking after myself through mellitus diabetes is a full time job in our attempts to continue to live.

The continuous waking up at night 
And eating every ounce of carbs, 
You won’t need your clock in the morning to set off your alarm.

Yet we fight every day
Keeping our bloods sugars under control, annd avoiding other annoyances along the way. 

We fight with this every day
We try not to allow anything negative to stay.

Life is challenging enough 
With obstacles to overcome with tenacity and wit,
So if people see me struggle, give me a sugar, this shall solve this latest  episode of a hypo… can’t you see it?

 “Living with type 1 isn’t fun… but we get on with it.”
