23 today

December 4, 2007 · 4 Comment s

Actually I turned 30 back in August. However, what I am referring to is that 23 years ago today I made the trip into Yorkhill hospital in Glasgow to be diagnosed with Diabetes.

I've now been taking 4 injections of insulin per day for .. I'm not sure actually. Maybe 17 years. I can't actually remember if I started on one injection or two, but anyway.

Anyway, happy Diabetes birthday to me :)
