(Determined) Diabetic, Grant Weiss
As a teenager I started getting violently sick and didn't know why. My whole body would ache. I'd be curled up on the floor, unable to move. My body seemed to be telling me that I was dying... And I believed it.
When I was finally diagnosed as a diabetic, it was almost a relief.
"So how do I beat this thing?"
I was met with the medical equivalent of a blank stare. I couldn't believe it! I'm in a battle for my life and can't get a straight answer?!
Eventually, just like many other diabetics, I let the disease take control. I'd eat whatever and "solve the problem" with insulin. My blood levels were constantly fluctuating between life-threatening highs and lows. I never knew one moment to the next how I'd feel.
Twenty years later, a routine eye exam changed everything.
"Uh oh," my doctor said under his breath. Almost like I wasn't supposed to hear.
I immediately perked up. "Um, what's 'uh oh?'"
He pointed at my x-rays and said, "You see this blood seeping into your eye? If we don't take care of this, you could go blind."
It was in that moment that I got determined. I searched the web, read every book I could get my hands on, started checking my blood multiple times each day, and keeping a journal of everything I thought might be a factor.
A year later, I had the best blood levels of my entire life. And I've kept my numbers healthy ever since. I want that same success story for the entire diabetic community. It starts with the belief that you have more determination than diabetes. That's what Determined Diabetic is all about.
