Diabetes care is part of life, so we often find ourselves checking blood sugars, taking insulin, and changing infusion sets in interesting places and at interesting times. Here are some great examples of people living life to the fullest and taking care of their diabetes at the same time. We've organized the photos by category and show the most recent three here. Follow the links to see all the photos.
Alison is 10 years old and was diagnosed three years ago and started pumping in December 2004. She is very active in her dance company and is shown here checking her blood sugar before a dance competition at Knotts Berry Farm, California.
This is a photo of my daughter, Alexis Bailey checking her blood glucose before continuing on our hike at the Grand Canyon National Park on the South Kaibab trail.
Madison, age 4, of Louisville, Kentucky stops for a bite to eat and a glucose check on a trip to the Cincinnati Zoo in July 2005. Madison has been insulin-dependent since she was 3 months old.
