Hello Diabetes,

If I could say anything to diabetes, I’d say you changed my life without asking for permission.

At first, I was scared and confused. But somewhere along the way, I realized you would not get to define me.

You’ve taught me that I’m stronger, more resilient, and more capable than I ever realized.

I’m still showing up. Still being a mom. Still acting. Still coaching. Still chasing my dreams.

Because diabetes is a part of my story, but it is not my whole story.

Now I want to hear yours. If you could say anything to diabetes, what would you say?
